Most of us Mac HTPC geeks have at least 2 mac with media split between both of them and hopefully most of it on the Mac HTPC. Managing dual libraries can be a tedious task; even when you are able to locate the missing media, you may lose your metadata, settings, covers, etc. Enter SuperSync makes moving iTunes library items to another simple, and without lost metadata.

SuperSync 2.4 makes this process a lot easier. The software allows you to visually compare, merge and modify media across multiple iTunes Libraries. In this latest release new features such as enhanced metadata transfers, new GUI, iPod Importing, media filtering and expanded support of new media types, hope to make your life easier. The software will send embeded track information such as genre, artist, album, track numbers, star ratings, entry points, end points, album covers, eq settings and play counts.

SuperSync will also sync with iPods, iPhones, and even PC iTunes Libraries!

A free demo is available for download, and the upgrade is free for registered users. Purchase the software for $29.00 and it includes a license for 2 machines to get you started.
