You need to damage the iTunesLibrary.itl file so that iTunes will revert back to the iTunesLibrary.xml (Right click>edit in Notepad and delete all the text. Save it. Because iTunesLibrary.itl is a proprietary file, we can't edit it, but we can edit the .xml file. Now open iTunesLibrary.xml with a Text editor. You can use the Find and Replace function to simply replace the path of your music. Save the .xml file and open itunes again. Done. That's the geek way.

Picasa and Windows Live Photo Gallery do not have any trouble staying sync with the folder ... Even Adobe Lightroom can do it (but you have to start the sync process manually).

I too have a massive music collection, which I am endlessly managing using outside applications to correct tags and remove duplicates. iTunes simply wouldn't refresh unless I removed and readded all the files. And with my collection, that takes days to delete alone. In comes the library updater to save the day! The article on lifehacker also had information on adding a batch script to your scheduled tasks. As of right now, I run it as I need and it works beautifully. Thanks for sharing this! A friend told me about this application when I complained about my missing files in iTunes.
