Hey.
I've downloaded A music album from the internet.
When I click File > Add To Library, I choose the album, and "Ok".
My "problem" Is : iTunes adds the songs of the album to the Library - TWICE. (every song)
What can I do? help my please,

That's because the songs have already been added to your iTunes library in the first place, you just manually re-import them once more.

I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.

The torrent file you've downloaded probably also contains a .m3u playlist file. That tells various players the order of the songs.
Sometimes, when you add a folder that contains various mp3s and an .m3u file to iTunes (which understands them), it will add all the mp3s, and then add the playlist - which links to all the mp3s, so they're added *again*.
Just take care NOT to add the m3u file, and all will probably work as expected.

...or you can save the trouble by just adding the m3u, not the individual files. That also works.
I wish iTunes would warn you if you tried importing duplicates though. *sigh*

For some reason, I have more trust in individual songs I add than in a playlist stuck together by somebody else...but yeah, works too.
And a BIG dito on the duplicate songs warning.
