| I think the only way for this to happen would be to share the itunes library of one account between the other by setting symbolic links from one to the next account. and setting the permissions so that you're able to read and write the files. What version of itunes are you using? |

| you should be able to set the permissions of /users/yourusername/music/itunes to be readable and writable to anybody on your machine then rename the /users/girlfriendsusername/music/itunes folder and then create a symbolic link from your itunes folder in the /users/girlfriendsusername/music/ folder named itunes. I did try this on my machine and it does seem to work properly |

| Simply make a music folder in /Users/Shared, and put the songs there.
