iTunes 7 in Leopard Loses a Feature

Under Jaguar, Panther and Tiger in iTunes you were able to directly
drag the contents of a CD into a playlist and the songs would
automatically go into the Library and appear in the playlist. Under
Leopard this is not so - dragging sings to a playlist does not load
them into either the Library or the playlist. So you have to add to
the Library and only then can you put them into a playlist. Not really
a big deal but a definite time waster.

Works fine for me. I do it often, and just tested to make sure I
wasn't dreaming...

It does on my machine. I just did this with about 500 CDs, so gosh, I think
I'd know. :) m.

Must be something about my and my wife's Mac systems. I have an iMac G5 and she an iBook G4, both have OS 10.5.2 and the iTunes that came with Leopard.

With a Mac Pro I suffer from the same ennoyance!
