library and playlist

[olgreeneyes]

each time i rip a cd to itunes, i make a new playlist with the cd's title. i then have the songs in the playlist and in the library, if i try to delete the songs from the library, they are deleted from the new playlist i just created. HOW DO I DELETE THE SONGS FROM THE LIBRARY, BUT KEEP THE SONGS IN THE PLAYLIST??????????/:mad:

That's not possible. Once a song is out of the library, it is out of a playlist too.

You should think about another way to designate your playlists. Creating them by album is redundant with iTunes abillity to sort by album name.
