1. Do I have to run iTunes?
This thing is a pain. I am reminded once again why I don't get along with Mac's. I currently use Real Player, and I am trying to find the function that scans a specific location for your recently added music files AFTER you have already added other's to your library. Is this possible in iTunes?
2. Do I really have to run iTunes?
I'm really getting mad at this software and it's GUI. I am looking for the feature in which Real Player contains where in my library, when in no longer want a song on my playlist I can also delete it from my hard drive at the same time.
Any suggestions. Or any other how-to's or tips will be Priceless for me at this point. I'm currently getting my media into order prior to getting my iPod.

Yes and No, there are multiple alternatives out there on the web that you can use, but some of them are questionable and problematic, Itunes has the useful little of auto updating your ipod. and yes you can add songs, use the "add folder to library" option, it is in the file menu, if you get any duplicates, there is a duplicate finder, but it should ask you when updating your itunes library if you would like to replace "song X" with the newer version, rename it, or not add it at all.
