Correct, but duplicates in this case means same disk id and track #, not necessarily same song title and artist.
Getting back to the original question as to keeping your database easy. If you create a folder on your external hard drive to hold all your Hoster song files, you can create a number of sub folders within the main folder. This would still keep things nice and tidy so you know where to look for them. If you do it this way you would have to list all the sub folders in the rebuild list then rebuild the list. Later if you want to use the add files feature be sure to move the folders with the new files in to the main folder before using the Add feature.
