Ah, I just ftp up and down with SmartFTP the mp3-repository I have both at
work and home. It goes fairly quick as it just skips files that are the

sizes. I guess you need something smarter than SmartFTP for the
comparison-thingie and your forms and stuff; I only transfer files in

A few weeks back I lost a hd on the computer I had setup for storing my
mp3-files at work, it was a raid0 array... Luckily I had the backup at
home.
Took me a week and a half to transfer back the music to work over a 1Mbps
cable-connection. Asymmetric connections suck...
