Eurail Pass Advice Please!!!!?

I am traveling through Italy. Basically going from Rome up to Venice (with some stops), to the Amalfi Coast (with some stops), then back to Rome. Should I get a Eurail Pass or just pay ticket by ticket? It is my first time in Europe so i don't know which would be more benificial. THANKS!!!Eurail Pass Advice Please!!!!?
Absolutely DO NOT BUY a Eurail pass if you are taking small train rides from stop to stop in Italy. The Eurail Pass basically gives you a certain amount of travel days. So whether you use it for a 2 hour ride or 22 hour ride they both count as one travel day. The Eurail Pass only saves money if you're taking long train rides or the express trains throughout the expensive travel countries in Europe, and Italy is actually not that expensive for trains. If you break up those 3 destinations with stops in between you don't have any large train rides, so buy individual tickets. Also, if cash is tight they have different levels of train service, with slow local trains being very cheap. They're generally in fine condition, and the slow rides gives you more time to enjoy the countryside scenery while saving some Euros.
Buy Eurorail Italy Pass - if you want to have a short visit.

but if you want to take sometime - just buy a regular tickets (city-to-city tickets).Eurail Pass Advice Please!!!!?
I live in Italy and I agree with Don; it'd be easier and almost sure even cheaper buying tickets in Italy (or booking from Trenitalia website).
I lived in Italy for 13 years believe me you don't need a Eurail pass at all the tickets are cheap enough and will give you more flexibility.

Eurail Pass is good for when you go from country to country and still then is still not except any all countries.
A pass is more beneficial to you. I just priced out a trip with Eurorail and in the end the pass was the best choice. It was a lot cheaper.
