> I believe this is mainly down to the FAT16/ FAT32 filesystem on the SD cards. Well I lost some to power failure, and they all had ext4 on it. Anecdotal I know, but I'll be avoiding RPi for anything that needs to persist data in the future.

In the past when I was using a rasppi (v1) as my media player, I used the SD card only for booting off of. The media files themselves were persisted on my nas, served over nfs. Using network storage really seems like the way to go, particularly now that the shared bus issue has been resolved. At the very least, real hard drives are much more efficient (byte/dollar) than SD cards.
