I'm sitting at 50.3 days of music right now. 18,265 songs ripped. It's pretty fun once you get that many into the system.
Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
Okay, why did this post briefly say "Array"? 'Twas not what I typed.
I was going to say that I feel like I have "too much" music at 5,600 -- it would be past 6,000 if I didn't delete stuff I didn't like.
Why did this post briefly say "Array" too? That's... creepy. What I meant to say was:
I went over 7000 songs and started to make cuts because I had a lot of stuff just for the sake of having it on my computer, not because I was likely to listen to it any time soon. Volume's fine, but density's where it's at.
For any VM fans (or simply fans of "Eclectic electronic ambient pop"), check out this interview with 46bliss. I think music fans in general would get a kick out of it, honestly. Good stuff about how the band got together, how they record, what their influences are, all that business.

My problem is "iPod block." I have 9500 songs on the iPod, and it takes me 3-5 minutes every morning to choose the first song of the day, scroll through the system, and find it.
Yeah, I can go "random" and see what comes up, but I never do.
I don't even try to put a big collection on my iPod. I've got a 30 GB model with around 5000 songs on it. I use this library with my work and I have one copy of it on the server in my home and another that lives on a 500 GB Firewire 800 drive. My full collection of sound effects also lives this way (About 150,000 effects) and between the two things I can quickly search and find what I need either in my home studio on with my portable studio on the road.

Well, look at that. She's a rich kid fashionista. I hope she survives until her first rehab.
