Downloading all the songs into Hoster, I have seen so many songs listed differently. And the spelling on some are wrong. I have all my karaoke songs listed in my book by Song and also by Artist. I don't want to give it up. I do have two hard drives and the songs are downloaded into each one. If I have a problem, I will just have to transfer them back to the other again. I have over 16,000 songs. I just can't bring myself to change it all right now. Thank you for the warning though. I'll let you know if or when I hit that snag and I will certainly say "you told me so".
Ramblin, I know exactly how you feel, I had the same philosophy on this that you do. I was warned as well.
However, I was very, very, careful in keeping my original numbering system as it is a very simple one where the Book ID matches perfectly with the song number. I never use that merge function as I am scared of it, and each new CDG I purchase gets the next rootbook ID in order.

So, just be careful, take your time, and GOOD Luck!
Bryant
