Pedro,

Ok, I'll try to make my point. Try to imagine the situation :

John is a music listener. He is constantly getting new music, while
purging the ones he dislike, and also hearing some music from his
library that he enjoys. He notices that he could listen music while on
commute, and then buys a portable music player. So, he copies some of
his music by hand to the device, and goes on listening to it.

About a month or two after it, John has downloaded new music, deleted
some more, and also would like to copy different music from his library,
he is tired of the ones he has been listening for over a month. So he
does all that by hand - he finds the music he deleted on his pc, and
deletes it on his music player - he finds his new music - and then
copies it to the device - and finally delete some of his "archive"
music, and gathers some other ones from the archive to replace them.

In order to keep his portable music player with new and fresh music,
John has to do this EVERY so and so, and by hand. John could be helped
by a computer system that lets him synchronize his library to his
portable music player, that can follow advanced definitions such as :

1. Delete all the musics that were deleted on the local library
2. Copy [all] the musics that are [1 month] old on the library to the device
3. Copy a random selection of musics from the library to the device, and 
limiting disk usage to [90%]

Since John can set the commands, he has lots of flexibility, and always
has updated, new, and fresh music to listen to, and he doesn't have to
worry about manually handling with files - Ubuntu's Rythmbox does it all
every time he plugs in the device and press "Sync".

Rhythmbox should allow you to sync part of the library with an SD card
