            Bug ID: 340973
           Summary: Make it easy to copy collection
           Product: amarok
           Version: 2.8.0
          Platform: Debian testing
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Collections/Local
          Assignee: amarok-bugs-dist@kde.org
          Reporter: nuorama@gmail.com
                CC: matej@laitl.cz, ralf-engels@gmx.de

Moving collection between computers is not straightforward. I copied:
- all music at the exact same paths
- ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/*
- ~/.kde/share/config/amarok*

However this is not enough. I achieved: copying layout + most or all settings +
playlist contents; but the collection contained 0 tracks. After rescaning there
were no ratings or "statistics".

I find that loosing ratings (+ play statistics + tags + lyrics) at each
computer change kind of negates the usefullness of using the feature.

Reproducible: Always


Actual Results:  
Collection is not transferable by means known to mortals.

Expected Results:  
Collection should transfer easily without having database knowledge or who
knows what other skills.
