Whenever I buy a new CD the last several years, I rip it in WMP as soon as I open it. Lately, I've had some turn up completely missing. WMP doesn't "remember" them when I put the CD in.
They are missing from the music folder C:/albums/(band), they are missing from the backup hard drive and they are missing from the Jeep Music folder where I keep the tag-edited versions.
In today's case, I wanted to give Kamelot-Haven a listen, and it was missing from all areas and I know I've listened to it in the Jeep, and not via the CD.
I listened to it in the previous Jeep many times on the built in hard drive. Now, I've copied the albums from the Jeep Music folder to an SD card (no HDD in the newer radios), and the album is gone from there too.
Is there a built in expiration protocol on newer albums that make the ripped copy vanish (similar to official digital copies of movies)?
This isn't a matter of WMP losing it from the library, and I've seen that before.
