    Music Management Made Easy

    All,
    Apologies if this is a repost. I wanted to send out a quick note to recommend a program for those of you who listen to music using SD Cards. Since I use iTunes to manage my music and sync up my iPods for other cars, I wanted to keep the same playlists and interfaces when I bought my R8. I did a little bit of research and found iTunes Agent. http://ita.sourceforge.net/ What I did was create 2 new devices for 2 2GB SD cards. I created a text file at the root directory of each card and a single sub-folder ./Music or whatever you want to call it. I created 2 playlists and assigned each to an SD card. Now when I insert the SD card, iTunes agent recognizes them and I can sync the playlists up with the SD cards. I still manage playlists and songs in iTunes and can have them in my R8 whenever I want. Since 99.9 percent of my library is non-drm MP3's this works great for me. Let me know if anyone has any questions.

    Wow, you lost me at root directory but it does sound like something I would like to do. I am sick of trying to use my Iphone to find songs.

    Hmm, might try this out. Can you sync multiple playlists with one card?

    Thanks. If I can sync 2 or 3 playlists as separate folders, that'd be perfect.
