Are there any plans in the works for a utility to backup the the EMPEG hard drive(s)?

This has been discussed before, but I haven't seen Hugo directly state anything about it recently.

My current work-around is to keep my playlists organized pretty well on my PC hard disk to begin with, then make my Empeg more or less a mirror of the PC hard disk. If I lost the Empeg disk, the only time I'd lose is in making a few extra playlists, but that's not much time.

If there were a way to use the USB port to transfer data bidirectionally, that would be awesome, because then you'd have your backup, and you could also use the Empeg as a multigigabyte file taxi. But I think we reined that idea in as too much feature creep.

The real issue is one that can only be answered by Hugo: the "Empeg as a tool for piracy" one. Hugo, do you have any revelations in that area?
