Keeping Duplicate Songs

[bobcox- with the Lord]

I only list one of each song in book.
but i keep all of them on my hard drive, just in case i need them for a paticular version.

Thanks to everyone who gave their opinion on duplicate songs.
I thought what I would do is keep most of them on the hard drive (can't see over 3-4 versions of a song) but only put one in my books.

Sort of like I had it before except when I finally get finished we won't have to lug all those Disc's around!!!

Wow, this is like starting all over again, here I had all the little weeds out of my books, mispelling of songs, errors in some of the track order, now I have to do it all again!!! But I guess improving takes work Right!!!!

Thanks again to All!!!!

Hard drives are cheap enough now days, why delete anything from it, you may get that 1 singer that will become a regular BEACUSE you have that oddball version. Delete it from your books by all means, but put a page in about ask the host if a different version is available or put a denotation besides the songs that you have dups for allowing the singer to come and ask if you might have that version. It may not happen often, but could mean a new customer because you do have it when no one else does (or lists it).

Lonnie's right, and that has happened to me as a result of having something that another host may not, and word gets around fast as well.

Thanks Everyone.. I see where your coming from. I know there are alot of singers that like that certain version.
I'll take your advise and keep all of them on the hard drive.
I had always kept a page in out book telling anyone to ask if we didn't have their version, that we may have just not listed in the book.
So bascially keep it as I have now, only NO DISCS!!!
Everyone here is so helpful!!!
And to the ADMIN....I'll keep my eye out for 4.0....I've read about it and excited about the new features!!!!

I'm curious what song is 16 min long? I tried to start a thread on which is the best song, it under "the best and only the best". I only have one version in the books and yes I took the time to decide what I thought was the best although I did keep all the versions in the computer.
