Not sure if it was a character it didn't like or the length of the name, anyway Itunes just stopped importing at that point. Had to manually find the name causing trouble and rename it.

I imported a huge number of cds and took an age I couldn't find a quicker way, if really took forever like a couple of weeks.

I make sure I have a backup you should too.

Get http://www.audiograbber.com-us.net/ and the Lame encoder. That gives you complete control over how you want to encode yer CDs and then they can be imported into iTunes.

Ctrl - A and drag them into iTunes? Although this is only helpful to a point. You'll still need to create the playlists and then drag one album at a time...

Get itunes 7.1 if you are using vista. If you got a mac . . . well then that's a feature.

Importing CD's into iTunes....

.... there has to be a quicker way! I'm at my parents house for the weekend and I thought I'd take the oppurtunity to take "backup copies" of some of their CD's - been at it for ages though.

If only I could somehow just zap them onto the hard drive
