@lnminente:
No problem - it's not meant to be "my" post anyway. Just wanted to know how other people backup and sync, what tools they use and which workflows. And here we go...
I think it's always good to discuss the pros and contras. That usually results in the most informative threads.
By the way I'm going on vacation for three weeks now anyway, so feel free to take control here
Before I leave, just a few words about my setup:
All audiofiles, MB portable and the library are stored on a 64GB USB-stick - and this "Music-Stick" is my working copy.
I've got a copy of all audiofiles (with identical folder structure) on my home PC and this is my backup.
When I add new tracks or edit tags, this always happens on the stick. And when I'm back on the home PC I update the local backup, currently using "Super Flexible File Synchronizer".
However, I'd be happy if I could find a solution which only updates ID3 tags if the file already exits in the backup.
I found only one tool which claims to be able to sync ID3 tags only: SuperSync
http://supersync.com/docs/sync_meta.phpBut didn't test it yet.
So, I'm curious what will be happened in this thread when I'm back again...
