iDupe2.9.3

Guys, this is just software from a company called Wooden Brains. YOU'RE MAKING IT AS THOUGH IT'S A WOODEN NICKEL on sale for $8.

Works fine! No need to buy Dupin.

Works great. Takes a bit of reading to figure it out, but with the flexibility it offers that's to be expected. Awesome app.

This was EXACTLY what I needed to remove all those dupes! It was smart, it was fast, it was accurate and it was cheap! Awesome job on this software and thanks for making it shareware. I couldn't be happier!

iDupe didn't really work for me. Maybe I didn't figure out the right settings but several attempts lead nowhere. DupeAway (http://www.macroplant.com/dupeaway/) seems to be much better. Search and marking duplicates worked at first attempt but it wants to be registered for USD 7,95 to enable the delete option. Spotlight search according to the duplicates listed by DupeAway also did the job - for a big amount of duplicates registration might be well worth it.

I found Dupin to be much more accurate and faster duplicate scanner. Dupin can be found at http://dougscripts.com/itunes/ Along with numerous iTune scripts. Very impressive collection of scripts.

This si especially handy if you have an iPod with limited space - but WHY OH WHY isn't this function truly built into iTunes already? Some say it is, but I don't think they get it. iTunes will find anything you're searching for, but doesn't intelligently or automatically find duplicates. This is also a dupe: same song, slightly different spelling, different bitrates or even a 1 second diference in length.

Good Idea - even though iTune finds duplicates itself, there is no easy way to delete them just from one playlist or the bibl. without affecting the bought music list. Anyway - for me it not usable because of the following: I have a est. 11,000 songs in the bibl. And there are doubles e.g. same Artist, same Song, different Album. For Dupe these are doublettes. So I still have to check manually. While the bibl. keeps growing it is somewhat painful....

This sort of thing should be freeware. It's a great program but so limited in use, scale, and functionality I don't get how it can be shareware. Even at $8. From my perspective freeware is the kind of app you use once and forget about, or at best occassional use. Shareware, the kind you buy, is an application that does something you're going to need regularly that performs an important maybe even unique function. iTunes already has the basic feature out, iDupe certainly expands upon it and improves it. But how often you use this app significantly undercuts its commercial value. Unless you operate your computer under dubious patterns checking your iTunes library regularly for duplicates isn't something you're going to do. Maybe once or twice a year, but even that's pushing it.

Actually this takes the iTunes dupes to the next level (albeit not perfect). I have a huge collection that it cannot parse. So give iDupe only the duplicate songs that iTunes find and it find actual dupes. Then it automatically selects the lowest bitrate song and gives you the option to delete it.

but I see you have the dead tracks thingie. Good on you.

Finally!!! Thank you!

Great app! It's done what the others haven't been able to do for me so far-- intelligent searching. Thanks!
