Is there an app/script that will merge my play counts and ratings from my work iTunes to my home iTunes?

20 Dec, 2009  ratings

I have two iTunes library that are both used daily, one at work (windows) and the other at home (mac). I rate a good portion of my music and pay attention to play counts. Is there any way I can add the counts/ratings from my work iTunes to my home iTunes?

    hmmm might wanna try

    but never used it so can’t say it will save the ratings.

    BUT This way will probably have a better chance of working:
    - Getting Mediamonkey & learn it lil bit
    … Mediamonkey has alot of great scripts that can be found on its forum

    Go to this topic: Export to iTunes
    (yea this isnt at first what you want but the topic gets to it)
    http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=41477&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=rating

    But than as you read on on page 10:
    http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=41477&p=231100&hilit=rating#p231100
    from the creator of this script:
    "For clarification the initial design of the script was to export from MM into iTunes - mainly to sync the tracks to my iPhone (while the MM functionality was broken). I was later encouraged to expand the script to recover rating and playcounts back to MM and then further make it bidirectional."

    …. Just remember Itunes saves ratings in its database BUT mediamonkey saves it in the file itself… Mediamonkey is far superior than itunes
