Long time Windows user, brand new MAC user 🙂

In Windows, I could highlight tracks, drag and drop them to a different folder, and it would move the file.

In MAC, I can do the same drag and drop action, but rather than move the file, the default action seems to copying them to the different folder.

Is there anyway I can change this at all? I am aware that I can double click, then "Move" but just wondered if I can change the default drag and drop action?

Many thanks!

Trev
