Oh, it was never an issue of expense, I don't know why Phil even raised
the issue.  I have lots of disk drives.  Three of them dedicated to
audio now (Rock, Jazz and Classical!) instead of just one drive with
three "genre" folders.

Never mind.  I guess it really is the case that the Touch must (for
some design reason) scan an entire device that is connected, and is
incapable of only scanning a nominated folder.  It was worth asking
anyway.
