Music files are special: they're relatively big.

I've found Dropbox works really well for documents and such, but if you're talking 100GB music collections, that's a lot of cash. Yes, this is a Dropbox issue, not an app issue. I think the app is really neat.




I think it's great for those of us who want to switch out music really fast without syncing or anything from any computer. Also solves some space issues like me filling up 8gb and needing only about 4 more...

Dropbox supports delta sync (a la rsync), which means a change to music metadata translates to only a few bytes being transferred instead of the whole file. This is a killer.
