itunes files are missing from me =(

option 1- dont use itunes

I'd also direct you to one of the many download sites, like isohunt or torrentzip, as well as utor, but I don't see that working out too well :/.

There really isn't anything we can do, just use itunes as rarely as possible (like, say, for transferring pre-owned music to an ipod), and make back-ups. Sry 4 ur loss, but all music is essentially free anyway :P.

I have a suggestion. Use programs such as Frostwire or Limewire, but make sure you have a good anti-virus/firewall, and scan anything you download. I have over 5,300 songs from downloading over the years. Completely free and somewhat very illegal - but the good news is that it works like a charm. You can easily search music by genre, artist, album, song name and some other options. SFJ had a good idea there, and I've never used iTunes myself but if the songs are physically on your PC (not sure if they stream from their servers?) you can just toss them on a flash drive or data disc and run with it.

havn't read the whole thread, but you should be able to copy over the files from your mydocuments/music/itunes folder on your old pc

5300 john? **** seriously? How many days of music time do you have? half a year? WHO NEEDS THAT MUCH MUSIC?
Anyways, Overkill Halo songs? really? I fell bad for your ears. I'm going to go listen to the music from Pirates, Vikings & Knights. And after that the music from mind craft. And afterward why not some flak guns firing rapidly into the sky. and then maybe a few kittens in a blender. and then a whole squad of jumbo jets all simultaneously landing and taken off while 500 kids with down syndrome try to sing amazing grace. Then to top it all off im going to have a loop of your voice bitching about you being hack and your itunes not working.

Get Napster and pay $16 a month and download all the songs they let you, buy what they won't...I am on the verge of 100,000 songs...and I can re download all of them.

Yeah I listen to all 5300 some songs. It really allows for some good variation when you set it on shuffle. You'll never hear the same song again in a car ride or during class. And Overkill, get a better taste in music. Maybe the Halo soundtrack is the least gay thing you have, with the gayest being all of Justin Bieber's and Miley Cyrus's albums; just sayin'.

HAY HAY HAY MILEY IS A ROCK STAR THAT IS BEING BROUGHT DOWN BY ASSHOLES LIKE YOU! Don't worry overkill i got your idol's back. PS if you type in ROCKSTAR the spell check gives JOCKSTRAP and a suggestion. Made me giggle.
