  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I was trying to seprate my wife's music from my son's music since he is only 2 and she is importing music for him. This program ROCKS!!! I tried Doug's script but it was not really working for me. I then found this and it works great!!! Saved me from hours of frustration.. GREAT PROGRAM. I love the way that each user can have their own music and prefs. Too Cool..

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />this program saved my life! well that may be extreme... but i'm very happy. i couldn't get it to import my old libraries -- which were scattered throughout many backups. but it read my current just fine. when i made a new one, i added all of the music from all of the old libraries to one master. and now i can switch between the master and the standard hd one flawlessly... at last! thank you.

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />The simplest applications are always the best. I live off a firewire drive that I shuttle between two eMacs, home and work. This wonderful app allows me to easily select between my home and work music collections, both of which live on the respective eMacs. This app has solved a lot of logistical problems for me. So far so good on reliability.

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />The version 1.2 - 1.2.2 versions of this app. still don't function properly. The developer says that the bugs are fixed, but the same bugs are there causing the same launch and basic functionality problems. The app. is useless until these bugs are fixed. Maybe re-build it from the ground up, and/or test it on different Macs with different versions of Mac OS 10, etc., or on other Macs, if you haven't already. Better luck next time. Thsi is the palin Truth!!!

• Continuously Problematic App.

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />How can you say that you have been using version 1.2.1 for weeks, when it was only posted today (February 17, 2004). Impossible! As of its release today, I have tested this app. on all levels root, client, console, terminal results and more, and have found it not to work or function properly. Until it is completely fixed or rebuilt from the ground up to accomodate Mac OS X version 10.3 or above, it is useless. For those that have used older versions and have had disastrous results, as mentioned in previous reviews, I feel it should not be used until it is fixed. I hope that the developer fixes it so that it can become the app. it purports to be. Please fix it so it really works. Thanks!

• So far, so good

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Have been using this for several weeks with no problems. In addition to backing up my original iTunes Library and XML files before installing this program (not taking any chances when dealing with thousands of ratings and comments), I use Libra's built in "duplicate" feature to periodically backup the files it creates. Then I just use the original set and know that I always have a 'revert to previous' set available, just in case. Anyways, it has allowed me to switch easily between a small stash of music on my PowerBook's internal drive and the main music library I keep on an external firewire drive. Love it.

• WTF!?!?

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This app looked pretty neat...HOWEVER. Every time it launches (successfully on 10.2.8), it wipes out the library information I spent so much time setting up. Every library is empty - including the default. No support available at the web site...NO warning to back up your iTunes Library AND XML files before using. I WOULD use this app, if it would not cost me hours of work only to erase all my effort... Arrrgh! Frustrated.
