Those are the absolute paths. If you want to be able to create playlists that work across systems, you need to make sure the playlists and the music files share a common parent (its this parent folder that you'd copy/sync to other systems), and then you need to use relative paths in the playlists themselves.

Using your example above, if you had the playlist in the same folder as the album, the playlist would contain just:
Code:
01-01 Bulletproof (Tangle Eye Mix).flac

If the playlist was one level above the music folder, you'd need:
Code:
./Kill Or Be Kind (FLAC 96-24)/01-01 Bulletproof (Tangle Eye Mix).flac

One level above again:
Code:
./Fish, Samantha/Kill Or Be Kind (FLAC 96-24)/01-01 Bulletproof (Tangle Eye Mix).flac

If you cd to the folder of your playlist, the path you'd put in the playlist is the path you'd have to type if you wanted to view the file permissions e.g. 'ls -l ./Fish, Samantha/Kill Or Be Kind (FLAC 96-24)/01-01 Bulletproof (Tangle Eye Mix).flac'

Hope that makes sense.
