Thank you for the information. What can cause problems are id tags that are specific to iTunes and/or Musicbrainz. Amarok only uses the id3 specification, so you should check if you have specific tags for iTunes and/or Musicbrainz. Another potential issue could be DRM for files from earlier iTunes downloads. You can use any advanced tagging software like kid3 or puddletag to edit those or just use eyed3 on the command line. Hope this helps.
