Version: 0.6.4-1
Severity: wishlist

Rhythmbox should include some duplicate song management dialogs so that
if you insert two copies of the same song, a prompt will appear and ask
which one you wish to keep.  For instance, I have a collection of mp3s
and oggs in my music folder (mp3/ and ogg/, respectively).  I keep the
mp3s around for my iPod and the oggs because they just sound better and
are OSS.  I would like to be able to import everything from my mp3
directory first, and then import from my ogg directory and overwrite the
duplicated mp3s. =20

The UI would be very simple.  Any duplicates in all id3 fields or
filenames (minus extension) would prompt a dialog saying:=20

"Song X already exists.  Would you like to replace it?

[ Replace ] [ Replace All ] [ Skip ] [ Skip All ] [ Cancel Import ]"

Or something to that effect.

What do you think?
