hi dnj
that's how it works on my ipod 4g..i had an old mp3 library that i transferred across to the itunes song library..all the names were the same, same order, same folders...the only difference was the extension changed from mp3 to aac (i had to convert them to run on the ipod)....and whenever i transfer to th actual ipod the songs go over in the same way as listed in the itunes library..
