I have several movies and much music loaded on my View. Is there a method to create a mirror image of the View memory on my PC so I can restore the device in case of failure? That is with a few simple steps w/o having to jump through hoops.

Secondly, I've used Real Player for the last couple of years and it worked well for me.  My usage was erratic, that is I'd download a few songs then would not use the service for several weeks in a row. Recently my good old Real Player "magically went away", replaced by Rapsody in order to squeeze more money out of me.

Is there a "free" version of the product that actually works without the constant bombardment of their upgrade "horse hockey"? Currently I've removed Real Player/Rapsody from my laptop and I'm using WMP.

Thank you
