Duplicated Music files

JamesBart · 12-22-2007, 12:24 AM

Hi All

I have much music and used to only use WMP for my collection but when I got an ipod I began to use itunes…. And I know what you will probably all be thinking but I think its alright. Hehe so here is the problem 

When I took all of my music into itunes I needed to convert to AAC. So I converted them to this and in my itunes I now have 2 files, one AAC and another the other original MP3.

Is there a prog that can delete duplicated music files? I kno this is a long shot but Im sick of having all these duplicated files.

Also if you have any questions then pleas just ask

Thanks

James

Why not do a search for whichever format you wish to erase and delete them all? Like search for *.mp3 within your directory then select them all and erase them.
