The reason I don't like iTunes is that when I imported my mp3 music library it tried to "organize" the files by artist, category, genre, etc... It also renamed my entire music collection. Bad part was that it failed to recognize about 400 mp3s in that library and I ended up with a mess, Track1.mp3, Track2.mp3, etc.... I now know that I can turn that "feature" off. I went a step further and removed iTunes, smoked the mess it created, and reinstalled my library of mp3s that I have archived on 5 CDs.

For listening to music I use Winamp. For burning CDs I use Nero which has a simple directory or drag/drop interface. No worries.
