Each of these apps tracks my entire music collection separately. Ridiculous! :P

Updating repository

First, use move_and_resymlink to move music from Fresh to an appropriate location. Create subdirs as needed. Once everything is in place, it's time to update the software!

-- ampache --

su -
cd /var/www/localhost/htdocs/ampache/
php bin/catalog_update.inc && chown apache:apache /var/log/ampache/ -R

-- iTunes --

WIPE THE WHOLE LIBRARY and reimport
Otherwise iTunes ends up with more dupes every time you refresh
UTTER SH*T
