A friend of mine switched to Time Machine for all of his back-ups and
it ate _all_ of his data. Everything gone.
I recommend:
sudo rsync -vaxE --delete --ignore-errors / /Volumes/[backup-name]/

Along the lines of backing up, I have found Time Machine to be
fantastic for
going back in time to different states of groups of musical
projects. I do a
quick Time Machine backup before and after every recording/editing
session -
and sometimes during... Very easy and fast.

That's interesting. I just got a MacBook (iTunes 7.6/OSX 10.5
Intel), and
I noticed files disappearing from iTunes – but the files themsel

still where they always were. So don't panic if they don't show
up in
iTunes – they may still be there. Still (repeat after me): bac
k up
frequently! (or get a Time Capsule!)

this is a heads-up for anyone using iTunes to preview/playback

unreleased music: my copy (iTunes 7.5/OSX Intel) just ate a
bunch of really
nice music that i'd made (aiff files) that i have no way of
getting back.
obviously i'm not very happy about this at all, as i didn't have
backups.
this isn't the first time i've noticed iTunes deleting files, but
it is
the first time i've noticed it deleting files that i was
referencing
elsewhere on the harddrive, rather than in its structured iTunes
Library
folder.
you have been warned.
