I have many duplicate songs in my iTunes. Is there a way to quickly delete all duplicates without having to manually delete all of them?

I would do it manually. As you can see from turingtest2's post, some duplicates are not really duplicates.


I would also review how you add media to iTunes. It should not be producing all that many duplicates.
