Months ago I needed to copy some music into iTunes as part of a clients job, something I've done thousands of times before, and it went wrong. I hunted around to find out why and came across a folder I hadn't seen before - Automatically Add to iTunes. What was it for?
Apparently it acts as a holding area for tracks you might want to add to iTunes. Drop your music there and the next time you fire up iTunes those tracks will, er, be added to iTunes - automatically. However I've noticed that having that folder side-by-side with the rest of my music files can cause issues. So if I have to do a bulk import into iTunes I've got into the habit of deleting that folder, and no harm has come to me. Of course the folder pops up again thanks to the magic of iTunes.
But all this got me thinking ... what on earth is the point of this? Having scratched my head I can't really see what this delivers. Any suggestions?
