I spent hours one day, editing the grammar of my ripped songs (CDDB sucks...).

In other words, "Blah The Of Blah A Blah" would have been changed to "Blah the of Blah a Blah." It's a bit OCD of me, I know...

I used the iTMS to check my grammar . I love how even Amazon.com doesn't have proper grammar, but you can always trust Apple to make things perfect...

Anyway, I'm on Windows (must...switch...), and I noticed that the folders that store the music have kept their original names ("Blah The Of Blah A Blah").

How do I change this? Consolidating the Library doesn't do anything, as it's already consolidated...

One thought... why do you ever look at the directory names anyway? The only times I see iTunes music in the finder is when I'm going to copy/move/whatever a file, so I choose Show Song File in iTunes. This happens so rarely that I couldn't care less about how my songs are organised!

What the nerd community most often fail to realize is that all features aren't equal. A well implemented and well integrated feature in a convenient interface is worth way more than the same feature implemented crappy, or accessed through a annoying interface.

I wouldn't, but...it's just inconsistent. I everything perfect on my computer, as my computer is my life (I'm kidding, but still...).

Does anyone have any ideas? Perhaps if I moved my entire collection and re-consolidated?
