So . . . I had all my MP3's backed up before the recent unpleasantness with erasing my hard drive. Good for me. I realize, however, that I didn't back up any of my iTunes playlists. Meaning I now need to recreate them. Which turns out to be a pretty daunting task when you have 6,000+ hours of music on file. So keep that in mind . . . back the playlists up, too!
