[DM-MUG] iMix Issue

Thanks for the suggestion of looking up the individual song
information in the ITMS. I will give it a try. However, most of my
iMixes contain 100 songs (the iMix limit) and usually when I initially
submit the iMix... iTunes only recognizes between 38-42 on average.
That would be a lotta lookin' up to do to get my library songs to
match their info ~ but IF it's the only workaround, I may end up doing
it.
