    So I give in and let iTunes organize music so I can access the same library data (rating, play counts, etc.) with either mac or window on my external hdd. Had to get that out of my system ; )

    I understand the iTunes organize folders/files under this structure: Artist/Album/track#-track name
    But if an album or track name has an illegal character in it iTunes renames it to a _ which makes the name kind of odd. Is there a way to change that to a - ?
    So "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Black Pearl" can become "Pirates of the Caribbean- The Black Pearl" instead of "Pirates of the Caribbean_ The Black Pearl".

    I know I'm being a picky about this since I probably won't access the folder often after adding it to the library anyways, but if there's a solution it'll be great!

    Thanks.
