It's pretty much self-explanatory: the music on my PS Vita keeps becoming corrupted.
This morning, I had 142 songs, but now I only have 138, and it may not seem like much, but it is.
I mean, it was all good in the beginning, had all my music. It was chill. Then, I saw a corrupted file. No biggie; just delete it. Well, it was a biggie. As the day progressed, more files got corrupted and I deleted them.
I don't even know what songs I'm missing.
I haven't taken this SD card out without turning my PS Vita all the way off, first. I haven't tinkered with anything that might've messed it up. I don't know what happened.
So, why is my music becoming corrupted, and how do I stop/fix it??

As for the why, there are a multitude of things that can corrupt data. The more important thing is to fix it.
When experiencing data corruption issues on the Vita, step one is always to perform a database rebuild. This is accomplished via the system recovery menu. To reach this menu, power off your Vita and turn it back on while holding R and the PS button. It will boot into safe mode and when the menu appears, you're going to select the second option: Rebuild Database. This solves the vast majority of corruption issues.
Make sure it's plugged into AC power as this operation can take a while depending on the size of your card and how much data is on it.
