try this
--begin--
#!/bin/bash
cp -uv /home/me/*.mp3 /music/
--end--
All it's will do is copy any file ending in .mp3 to your /music directory.
Note: Linux is case senstive and Windows is not, so the limit this script has
is that it wont copy a MP3 file. Easily fixed and I know there's neater way
of doing it, but I don't how to do it. Also when you create the file don't
forget to make it executable, meaning... "chmod u+x filename "

P.S. No worries about permissions, fat32 doesn't support them. Note: leave out
the "begin" and "end" lines
