Whenever I have 4GB of files in there, I copy them to ~/music/nn where nn is 01, 02 etc. Then burn it as a DVD.
As another level of backup, and to ensure that any changed tags (eventually) get backed up, I re-burn each DVD periodically (these days, at <20p per disc, this can be quite often, certainly every year) I'd like a better solution too. I'd have to probably re-tag quite a few tracks after restoring from DVD. Im thinking of storing some kind of binary diff, but then again, its easier to re-burn the entire DVD. -- clumsyoik ------------------------------------------------------------------------ clumsyoik's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1997 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18029 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
