Let me know when it's fixed. I am about to make the leap to a new Mac Studio, so iTunes is going *poof* and I will be stuck with the annoying Apple music, hence my trying to make the full switch to MC29.

I was an iTunes user for decades and made the switch to MC when Apple ditched it and came up with "Music". It was unbearable so I switched. It's a pretty long learning curve to get into MC but man is it worth it. There is just nothing even remotely close to what it can do. I don't regret the move for one second. My media had never been so well curated and organized as now and I am just very happy with it.
Good luck with it, you'll find very knowledgable and helpful people on this forum to help you when you need it.

Thanks, Hans,

I have been using Media Center since the 1st Mac version became available, but I have only used it as my library/player for my hi-res FLAC and ALAC files. My lossless (44.1/16) ALAC collection remained on iTunes. The only thing I will need to figure out is how to add my curated playlists and files to my iPhone 13 if I no longer use iTunes/Music.

I am a playlist fanatic.

That is a nice list, Paul
I have quite a few playlists, too. I am even more excited by the smart lists. I have almost completely switched to using them. It is amazing how I can assemble a list just to my liking by using the correct rules. This is where my extensive tagging comes in really handy. I remember the issue with ALAC files that wouldn't play anywhere else because of their DRM. I think there is a way getting rid of the DRM using iCloud match but I don't remember the details. It definitely is a pain. I eventually ditched them all and replaced them.
