as usual, your tech talk has left me dumbfounded. i got lost, but remain interested. i'm also using Time Capsule as the location for my entire iTunes library. streaming music and video is nearly seamless, although at times i get the spinning ball for a few seconds. uploading a video can take five minutes to start, but there are no interruptions once it gets going.

Basically, I think by transferring such a large amount of data somehow really messed up the way the files were stored on the TC.

Go ahead, quote me. I dare you.
