</div>

itunes & ipod seems to put the "name" as it's main screen information.

i need to be able to mass-edit the name field to include the track number, then the name

eg "02 push - universal nation"

rather than just "push - universal nation" the 02 in here is contained within the filename, but not the name.

is there any way to mass-add the track number, into the name field?

otherwise i've gotta manually add the track number into thousands of files
