THIS COMMAND IS EXTREMELY USEFUL FOR CONSOLIDATING ITUNES LIBRARY WHEN SWITCHING TO A MAC. It lets you put your mp3s into a single folder so all you have to do later is put them into the "Automatically Add to iTunes" directory. Thank god I still have Fedora on this laptop to use this; I didn't want to have to ruin my Mac I just got. :> Thank you!
