Re: [slim] Advice Please - FLAC to MP3

2016-05-19 Thread usc95
I rip to ALAC instead of FLAC. Itunes will automatically transcode the ALAC files down to lossy AAC files during syncing. It will give you the option to choose the bitrate and do all the work. The nice thing is you only need one library for your i-devices and Squeezeboxes since LMS handles

I have all my music uploaded to Google Music. I am not sure if it is available to be downloaded as lossless files were I to need it but it serves as my third backup. I have my music on two computers both backed up to external drives. While Google Music isn't perfect it is there for me to use

Backups to servers outside of your control mean that your data is no longer in your control. If you don't control it, you don't own it. I back up everything from all my home computers (my three, wife's two) as incremental backups to my own server, nightly. Weekly, the server gets backed up to

I'm using iBroadcast. It's free and lets you store your stuff in original quality (FLAC in my case) and get it back at the same quality later. They also don't muck about with it with DRM and stuff - it's your stuff, stored. I use it for music in the car via their phone app. Currently not

You might want to take a look at the various online backup service providers out there: Crashplan, Backblaze, etc. They offer good services at reasonable prices ($50-60/year). If you're keeping local and remote backups of multiple TBs of data, these prices are are competitive with the costs

Could be just me, but you get to use the official SB app from the play store too. Doesn't work for me after the upgrades to lms 7.9. I did upgrade to hopefully fix some issues with cover photo cache DB size, but nothing much changed. In the end I gained library views, which is cool, but I have
