Apart from having a removable hard disc cartridge which travels home after each recording session (cheaper than a firewire drive and works on older machines too), we have a wireless LAN between my house and the drummer's house (about 500m) distance. We mirror the data by FTP to his house at about 4Mb, then he can burn it to CDs for the rest of the band. It wouldn't work for everyone, but we shouldn't lose any songs... Cheers Daniel
