Edit Your Songs in iTunes

Scenario: You want to edit out non-musical dead spots at the beginning and end of your songs
Solution: iTunes has a quick and easy built-in feature to edit songs






Bono might be a great musician, but just because he can hold a tune doesn't make him an expert on global economics. Chris Martin from Coldplay knows a good melody when he sees one, but personally I don't care if he wants us to end world hunger by scrawling messages on our hands.

Unfortunately - if you're a fan of live music and purchase "Live" albums - it's likely that many songs will include long periods of rambling from the singer or band as they talk to the crowd. Some might like this, but others don't - especially if you're working-out and just want to cut to the chase of the music.

iTunes includes a very handy feature to let you edit music on the fly. The best part is that it doesn't permanently change the file so you can always revert back to the original if need be.

Check out the video above for a full walk-through.
