I don't store the .wav's on RAID or back them up since the data can be recovered by re-ripping. I do plan to replace the drive by the time it's 3 years old, long before the mean time before failure.

It has been almost a year; time for a technology update. Three questions: Does anyone have some new ripping software for MP3s, or are you still using Exact Audio Copy or Windows Media Player? Is there a difference between MP3 compression programs, or do they all use the exact same digital algorhyth...

One benefit I see in dancers wanting to be Swing DJ's is it gets them interested in form in the music. Considering most Lindy hoppers wouldn't know how Fletcher Henderson is if you asked them, having them showing an interest in the music has to be an up side on some form. Now you just have to encou...
