Archive a song

Post by HowardBrazee »

What is the best way to save off a song to my iMac's disk from my library? I want to be able to rip it again from my computer instead of from the original source.

I just did some testing:

It seems that I can pick a song and "Reveal in Finder" to find the .zip file in the kJams directory. Then copy the .zip file to an archive directory. Then return to kJams and delete the song from my library.

I can always rip that .zip file back into kJams.

Everybody agree that this is the best way of doing that?

  1. make a playlist with the song files you want to archive
  2. select that playlist
  3. file->export->entire playlist: all files
  4. after that's done, select all the songs in the playlist
  5. edit->trash original files
  6. then delete the playlist
