Find recently added tracks in iTunes
I used to do this because It Makes Sense. Our lives take place in sequential time, and my brain conceives of my iTunes library pretty much in the order I added the songs.
Then I had a corrupted library and had to reimport it from the xml file. All of the songs now have a single add date, and sorting by "date added" does not even keep albums contiguous. I wish the info view would allow modification of "date added." You might argue that it defeats the purpose of a "date added" field if it can be arbitrarily modified, and that "date added" should be untouchable as some sort of historical documentation, but consider:
updating Data Added field?
I've been looking for a way to preserve the Date Added information when merging iTunes Libraries and Music folders. Maybe it's possible to reset it to the file creation date? Closest I could find was Doug Adams' File Creation Date to Comments script. Unfortunately the "date added" AppleScript property is readonly so it seems the only way of doing this is by modifying the Library's XML file.
