Summary

On Hands-On Mac, Mikah answers questions about Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 WARP app and VPNs, whether there's a program to help remove duplicate music files on a computer, and the best cloud storage option for a viewer!

Susan writes in, asking how Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 + WARP works vs traditional VPNs and which is more secure.
D A is looking for an application that can find and remove duplicate music files on their computer and play his music continuously off his computer & a USB drive.
Tshepo is using their iPad Pro with a MacBook Air using Duet Display but is looking for a way to prevent the MacBook from charging the iPad while connected.
Jason has multiple cloud storage solutions and wants to trim them down to just one offering. He's also looking for an easy way to transfer the files from one cloud provider to another when consolidating.
Andrius will soon be getting an iCloud subscription and understands that iCloud only syncs the Desktop and Documents folders. He wants to know if he moves his Music folder into one of those folders, is there a way to keep the playlists he has set up in Apple Music intact?
