Hey Kris,

I wouldn't waste too much time trying to fix this as it seems itunes  
has a problem with m3u files. I googled this and came up with a  
helper utility for itunes both mac and windows.  http:// 
homepage.mac.com/cp_stevenson/Entries/M3U2iTunes/

I guess nobody tried my suggestion yesterday to download the m3u file  
from you and import it into itunes which creates a playlist that has  
all of your tracks in it ( even the ones with the messed up names).   
It seems the helper utility does much of the same thing as my fix.

Hope this helps.
