Why do I have duplicate songs in GP Music?

Duplicate Songs in GP Music!

After installing the Play Music Manager on several of my machines (all of which had local copies of my music), Google Play Music now has duplicates (sometimes triplicates, and more than a few quadruplicates!) of my songs. I know I can go in and delete them manually, but we're talking hundreds, if not thousands, of songs. Anyone know of an easier way?

Re: Duplicate Songs in GP Music!

Unfortunately, Google Music Manager and Google Play Music aren't sophisticated enough to tell when you're uploading duplicates--hopefully Google will work on that in the future. Your best approach is to have one main computer where you store the vast majority of your music, and run Google Music Manager from there.
