the iTunes aren't mp3 files. they are aac or mp4.
fuck winamp. iTunes is the best thing out there.
like it was mentioned above, disable auto-synch. I do this for every program I have that uses it. I also never install iTune updates until I HAVE to. most times, they seem to disable more features than they create. so unless it crashes on you, I wouldn't accept updates.
Florya, I still think that your files are on your computer. don't search by "music" type under Window's search funtion, just use the name of the track and specify "all files". it will take awhile, but I bet the folder just got moved.
barring imminent critical hard-drive failure, it would take TWO separate confirmations to have deleted all those files (the first for "are you sure?" and the second stating that the file is too large for the recycle bin and it will be deleted).
I'm glad that you can get the stuff off your iPod right now, but there's a good chance you are using up extra space on your hard-drive with duplicate files.
