Hey everyone, so I recently got an external HD and moved all my music to it and am letting iTunes access all my music from it so I can listen to it from my comp w/o it actually having to be on my comp :0) It took a while, but it is for sure a setup I am very glad I switched to.
The only glitch is, I have new songs, some of which are over 10 minutes long, that I am not sure I like yet. I have to listen to them first. Where I run into trouble is my external HD is hooked up to the 2.0 USB on my Airport Extreme so downloading 10 minute songs to it talked longer than I am willing to wait (especially since I have SO MUCH new music to sample).
Is there anyway that I can listen to new songs on my macbooks HD w/o having to upload them to my external HD before it will play it for me? Every time I click "add to library" it automatically moves it to my external HD. And I still want my external HD connected while I am doing this (I still need access to the other music already on my external HD while I am sampling new music)
Hopefully this all makes sense I someone out there much smarter than I can help me out with this. Thanks in advance!
