[Dtb-talk] Is it safe to delete books with the Victor Stream?

[Dewey Bradley]

another strange thing is.
with mine, about half of the time it takes the folder out, and the other 
half it wont.
Also some times when I put a book on my stream, when I put the card back in, 
the book wont be there, but I can see it when I look with the computer, I 
have to delete it and put it back in, it then will show.
I've always thought that it was something I was doing.
