For every file you send to Book Port,  you will have 2 additional
files, giving you 3 files for every book. The strange extensions you saw
are created by Book Port Transfer and the Book Port. The DD file is the
actual data file. The other 2 files (the ix file and the aa file) are
for navigation indexing and to hold your place in the file. You don't
want to delete those files. Even if you did, they would be put back.

Hi everyone,
      I have been finding that when looking at my files on my card
reader, 
I see some strange file extensions such as _ix.  There are usually
several 
different extensions for the same file even if it is an mp3 that I have

copied over.  Can anyone explain and if you remove them, will the
original 
file still play?
