I am trying to use Hoster 4.11 with Windows 7. I am confused about the use as I have all my songs in a zip format on an external hard drive. They play just fine. My laptop hard drive will not accommodate all the files from my external hard drive to be imported. I would like to keep my external hard drive as my source.

When I imported some files to the laptop to see what happens, the file names were changed and stored on my laptop. Now this is ok as now I can do a search in Hoster and find songs from the ones I imported. I can see how that works. But still all the files on the external hard drive will not fit on the laptop.

So, is it to my advantage to buy the Songverter to change all the ZIP files on the external hard drive to KMA so that the I can use Hoster to search for a song when needed? Does anyone have a clue about this?

No, you do not need songverter for this. The zips still have to be imported as kma's, and can be placed in a folder within the ext. HD as well. That would be your best betespecially if your laptop cannot hold all the kma's. I have all my kma's on several backup HD's and the zips backed up on another.
