Does Itunes transfer your music on your hard drive?

Question

I got a Ipod touch and I need to add music. I have a collection on my Computer's hard drive and i was wondering if those could be changed into itunes or do i need to pay for the music again?

Answer 1

Nah, Just open iTunes, click "file" then "add folder to library".

Then select the folder with all your music in it.

You can also just drag it into itunes.

If its mp3, its ready to go on your ipod.But if its .wma or another formatt itunes will convert it to mp3 and copy it to the : Your Documents/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music.
