ITunes: CD-Information stored where / copying the cd-database?

[Fritz-Ulrich Siewert]

Hello,

since the CDDB contains often wrong or incomplete information, the
corrected informations about my CDs, which are stored somewhere in the
iTunes files, are valuable to me. No I'm moving my files over to a new
PC. Copying the MP3-lib worked flawlessly, but when I'm inserting a CD,
the information about it ist missing...

Is there a way to copy the my personal CD-database from one PC to another?

Thank you,
Fritz

Try FreeDB instead of CDDB. Using Rip'N'TagIt. It may still be free or
have a free trial period.

Media Monkey is also free and has a tagger.

iTunes stores its library in a custom database located in the iTunes folder that
you specified in the preferences. The file name is "iTunes 4 Music Library.itl"
There is also guides to do this very task at http://www.ipodlounge.com/
