Pretty easy to do in any scripting language.

i cant do that yet.....i'm a freshman in computer science

In python:

import shutil, os

m3u = r"c:\path\to\m3ufile" # r means raw, don't interpret backslashes
destination = "e:"

fp = file(m3u)

for line in fp:
try: os.path.exists(line.strip()) and shutil.copyfile(line.strip(), os.path.join(destination, os.path.basename(line.strip())))
except: pass

Not a very readable solution, but I was trying to reduce the number of lines so I didn't have to keep typing in nbsp nbsp etc.

Just use forward slashes, they work fine in windows.

Anyway, the iTunes/iPod combination rocks... you can drag a playlist in iTunes to your iPod and it will copy the files, or select a playlist and hit burn, and burn the playlist to a CD

I've heard that before, but if true, why does anyone use backslashes?
