I'm looking for a recommendation for an easy to use data back up program for clients who wish to backup their own data. Roxio is awful. You create a project that includes Folder X, and if you add a new file to that folder, it will not be added to the Project the next time you run the backup project. I've had problems with Nero as well. Anybody have a cheaper easy solution than $99 BackUpMyPC?

Thanks,
tslugmo

I use Acronis True Image. Its easy to use, and has never let me down yet. Best part is that it can do a full backup of the system drive in windows, without having to reboot.

For the best quality mp3s use EAC (exact audio copy) to rip your audio CDs and LAME to encode them. Follow this guide:

Thanks for the tip. Actually I just found SyncBack http://www.2brightsparks.com/syncback/syncback-hub.html which seems to offer the exact functionality I want, plus you can't beat the price (free). Hopefully it will work as well as they claim.

Hope this helps somebody else.
