ah. bless you lovely people. Cheers toretorden I am looking into that, my temporary solution has been to simply empty the library on the iTunes screen, click and drag the harddrive folder onto it. That's pretty much recovered most of the music as I left it I think... apart from the playlists ofcourse. We'll see if things are the same next time I startup the computer, it's like my iTunes just suddenly lost it's memory, maybe I shouldn't have skipped all those disk checks...
I was thinking about bulk-buying CD-R's online in those (you can get like 100+ for twenty quid) and just burning my favourite albums onto them, I find hard copies very comforting... The DVD-R secondary backup is a good idea jackhammer, according to my iTunes I have 81.3 GB so that should be do-able? At least CD's and DVD's can be put in a shoebox and not infected with spyware and whatnot...
