iSweep 1.7.4 (Mac)

Overview:

iSweep is a utility to allow you to find duplicate tracks in iTunes. It allows duplicate searching based on combinations of Track Name, Artist, Album, File Size and Track Length using a user set time threshold. Once duplicates have been found, you have the options of listing duplicates, backing up duplicates to a user defined directory or deleting duplicates. iSweep also has the ability to "Protect Playlists" so that backing up or deleing duplicates doesn't cause your playlists to "break". iTunes 4.7 now has a duplicates view, but it is very limited in how it finds duplicates. iSweep allows much more control in determining what tracks are duplicates. iSweep also allows you to not only delete duplicates, but also gives you the option to backup duplicates to a user chosen location. iSweep also allows you to search your hard drive for all music files that are not registered as a part of the iTunes Database. Once the music files are found, you have the option to move them all to a location of your choice. You would be surprised how many orphaned music files are on most drives, I know I was. iSweep is easy to use and takes all the pain out of tracking down, backing up or deleting duplicate tracks from iTunes.
