Does anyone know what the itunes limit is?

I remember it used to be 32,000 items... is it still the same.

I'm want to import a library of 60,000 sound samples and want to know if itunes is going to tank on me.

iTunes 4 no longer has a limitation on the number of songs in your library.

66,000ish... without too many problems... it is a bit sluggish, but I suppose that's to be expected..

Really? I have around 6600 tracks and it's quite peppy. What hardware are you running it on?

I had 18,000+ on my iMac DV SE 400 (640 RAM) with no problems (running both Panter and Jaguar). Never had any speed problems (exacept to back it up) Also seems to be as peppy as a G5 SP 1.8 (1 GIG RAM)...
