I still have lots of stuff on tape, mostly Maxell UDXLs.

So, my dad gave me a bunch of audiobooks for the drive up to Canada. Trouble is, he gave them to me as separate mp3s for each chapter. Is there an easy way to tell iTunes "hey, all these mp3s are actually one big audiobook, so moosh them together, 'k?"

Bearing in mind that I have a ton of other shit to do before getting in the car tomorrow at 6am. Right now I have each book as its own playlist, so at least the tracks will all play in order.

If so I'd love to know. I ended up just making them into playlists too.

Jessica,

My only other suggestion is Garage Band if you have a mac.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

There's also JoinTogether (also Mac): [link]

Thanks LeN, but these are all in folders on a DVD, so iTunes won't recognize them as CD tracks. And I don't have time to fiddle with Garage Band before we leave. Oh well - playlists it is.

I just got my cable-internet connected. The d/l speeds are twice as fast as my old DSL, but the uploads are half as fast. What is the typical upload speed for Cable modems? Mine tested at 484 kb/s

I forgot, cable gets slower the more folks on it. I tested now, and the speeds are a bit faster. The d/l is great. The u/l still a bit sluggish. Thankfully I d/l more than u/l. Thanks for the link dcp.
