every time I put in a DIY CD that doesn't have iTunes titles on it (CDDB), the CD name and song titles come up from some other older DIY CD, both in iTunes and Finder.

my wife did the master bath last year with Am Stan. Noisy useless piece of $h1t. Gets stuck on paper. Now we're getting ready to do the down bath. She's decided on Kohler this time. More crap.
