Copy | rename

It used to be that it would take hours (not literally, but it often seemed like that) to copy music to an MP3 player. A lot of that was time taken renaming the tracks so you had something beside Track# (with the # representing which number track on the CD any particular song was). Now, thanks to the marvellous of modern technology, particularly the miracle that is iTunes, when you start copying the CD via said iTunes, it goes off to check some database, and if it's found your CD there, it asks if you want to import the CD by name OR if it hasn't been able to find it, it says so, and asks if you want to import it anyway. I'm copying Christmas songs for the great trek north for the holiday season, and out of 7, the current one is the first I'll have to rename tracks on. Fantastic.
