Reccommend an app/programme that will delete duplicate tracks in Itunes? (Mac)

Please move this if there is a more appropriate forum for this.

I am trying to free space on my Macbook to make room for Final Cut Pro. According to my Itunes, there are 20gb (:eek:) of duplicates! This is mostly from transferring music from my Ipod to my Macbook...

I had a look at some of the programmes that manage duplicates, I can't find a very good free one though. Does any one have any recommendations? I don't mind paying a few euro as I really need the space on my laptop.

Itunes: File->Display Dublicates. Ctrl+A, Delete. Will this not do?

No, this displays all copies of the duplicate tracks. I want to delete the duplicates and keep one copy. To manually do this for 20gbs of itunes tracks is not fun, I have been doing it. So far I have tried Idupe and Song Seargeant, would like TidySong but its too expensive.
