Certain songs wont import ...

This topic has probably been discussed ad nauseum online but it is driving me crazy.

I had apporximately 26gb of music all with correct ID3 v2.4 tags, the only tags which were filled were Artist, Album, Track Title, Track Number, Album Art, Year and Genre. All others were blank.

Itunes would not import any of these files, after some research I seen that it was because I was using ID3 v2.4. I backed up the tags, removed them all and applied them back on as v2.3 (minus the year, genre and album art).

Itunes then imported about 19gb of the files.

Some albums werent imported but itunes did not import anything past the letter R. Red Hot Chilli Pipers to be precise. (Not a mis-spelling, Scottish pipe band :P).

I picked out one file which I know wasnt imported and tried to play it in Quick Time which worked with no issues. I tried an MP3 repair tool but this did not find any problems.

Any ideas as to what could be stopping them from importing.

All files are DRM free MP3s and they all play in Winamp.
