Thanks for the tip. However, I found that when using this, iTunes would always start playing the first file that I was importing. This wasn't particularly welcome when other people in the house were sleeping :-)

So, I found an alternative. From iTunes9, there is a folder under the "iTunes Library" called "Automatically Add to iTunes". Simply copying / moving files to that folder causes them to be imported into the iTunes Library next time iTunes is opened.
