    My iTunes pulls its music from my MUSIC folder. They are one in the same thing.

    I practice sets at home on the desktop, and D/l, edit, tag, normalise them all on the desktop too..
    I obviously play out on the laptop, so this means synching these files between the 2 machines for every change i make.
    Im rapidly coming to the conclusion that one properly backed up external HD with all the tunes on is the only may to go, i can swap it between desktop and lappy whenever needs be

    Always on two zip drives. Small, portable, can withstand a washer/dyer cycle and if it can’t fit on an 8 gig zipdrive, that means I’ve got too much music. Plus you can use them with CDJs if you’re in a spot.

    That’s the most logical thing I’ve heard all day.

    maybe used to have a backup of your music to carry around and prevent, ruling the party if your PC does not work
