I DJ and use Dropbox for managing my music library. I use a folder structure with all of the songs I use for performances backed up in my Dropbox. I've organized roughly by music genres, e.g. Trance, House (and various subgenres), Techno, etc. The folder syncs to my laptops that I use for performing so I have all of the songs available locally.
I currently use Rekordbox so with that I can export playlists to USB, and then I can copy the playlist files into Dropbox too alongside my DJ music library so they are also backed up in the cloud. I have also used Rekordbox's sync integration with Dropbox to pull things down directly, but I prefer to also have a USB copy of everything (songs and playlists) in case of network connectivity issues. Some things in Rekordbox are path-sensitive so at times I may need to edit playlist files to fix the file locations (like from the USB path to my Dropbox path). I wish I had an easier way to do that today that could auto-locate each file and update its location based on folders I tell it to search in, but I make it work.
