You could use relative pathnames with your playlists. This would
require you to open each .m3u file in Notepad and delete the absolute
pathname. For example, if you have a folder called EAGLES with a
subfolder HOTEL CALIFORNIA, your playlist would reside in EAGLES and
the first line in Hotel California.m3u might look like this:
\\C:\My Documents\mp3\HOTEL CALIFORNIA/01 - Hotel California.mp3
To change it to a relative pathname, the first line in the file would
look like this:
HOTEL CALIFORNIA/01 - Hotel California.mp3
This may seem a hassle, but if you move your files around, it's either
this or rename your .m3u absolute directories every time you rearrange
your directory structure.
