You can synchronise directores with it. If you work on two computers for example, and change only a few files here and there, it is good it those files are synchronised, so that you dont work next day on an outdated file on the another computer. So TC sync dirs encounters all changed files on both side, and copies the newer version of files onto the other side, overwriting the older if necessary. Good for backup purposes too, it is much faster to copy only those files that were changed instead of copying the whole directory tree all the time.

It's also useful to compare files burned to CD/DVD with their originals, I often use this for verification.

I did too, but now we have that wonderful CD Burner plugin, that pretty well verifies :-)
