How do I delete duplicate songs? Some how I have two of every song and I am wondering if there is a way to delete duplicates all at once or do I have to do it manually?

Any tips or tricks would be incredibly appreciated!!

What player are you using? iTunes?

I can't tell you how many "duplicate song" threads I've seen surrounding iTunes. There are a lot of commercial/shareware programs out there like DupeGuru, but in my experience they don't work very well. I found an open source duplicate removal program awhile ago, but I forget the name.
