Actually, you can reload twenty different discs, it will just take a while. In the future, you will probably want to choose "Acid Project with Embedded Media" as your save as type. The files will be pretty big, but it's a lot easier to do this when you have taken loops from multiple loop libraries.

What I do to avoid this problem is to copy each loop to the project's own folder as I add it. I have for example D:\Acid stuff\Acid projects\name of the project. Give it a try. It works for me.

In the Acid 3.0 "Save As" feature there's a check box for "Copy all media with project" - which dumps all the loops into whatever folder you're saving the project as.

Even better, if you've got the hard drive space (or another hard drive in your system), load all your loops to your hard drive, preferably in a folder for neatness' sake. You then won't have to go CD swapping every time you go to load a project.

You don't have to copy the whole contents of the CD over either; just the contents in the typcially-named "Loops" folder.
