"This program is a physical workout!"
OK boys and girls, Similarity V.3 is a good music file dupe remover; whether you'll really want to use it is another story! I do not recommend that this program be run an a music library of more than about 5GB, that's about 1000 songs, plus or minus. Reason?; slow, slower, slowest!!! It took Similarity v0.3 six (6) plus hours to parse and scan my 18GB library; I am now throughly convinced that I do not have a SINGLE duplicate file in my library! It gets better! The dupe files to be deleted must be selected INDIVIDUALLY; ah..., that would be one at a frigging time! You CAN NOT blanket select the files to be deleted! That would be click, click, click and click repeated over and over again! In my case, over 400 files to be deleted! I'm having major hand and wrist issues trying to type this review! My fingers are cramping like bent nails! I'm looking at the coming of carpal tunnel syndrome! So, Similarity v0.3 does a good job removing dupe music files; it's that the time and physicality involved is highly questionable!!! by: farpointstation | 3 | 2007-10-13 |
