- Ripping a CD collection using KAudioCreator.

- Playlist formats PLP vs M3U
- M3U seems more popular, but my Sansa uses PLP/PLA format.
- ID3 tags
- What is an ID3 tag and why does it matter.
- udev and autofs
- How to make your USB device show up in the same place ALL the time.
- Amarok
- Listening under Linux, making playlists, and managing a music collection, as well as updating files on a media device (aka MP3 Player).
- VFAT and special characters
- What can not be in the paths or names of your mp files.
- rsync
- A great Linux tool that works well on USB Mass Storage devices. Why I started there but moved on to Amarok.
