my guess is that they are stored on your hard drive

You choose where they are stored in the preferences, you also choose if it auto cleans them up, moves them, etc. So it all depends on your settings. I have all of my music auto-moved into the itunes folder and organized.

I never had anything set.

My imported tracks play fine but I dont know where the fuck they are because theyre definitely not in the itunes music folder (that only contains the mp3s i downloaded off the net).

I tried to search for them but no luck. fucking annoying.
