Wash ,'Bushwhacked'
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.
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.
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.
I have a 20 gb MP3 player, and am constantly having to trade things out. I have, at current count, over 50 gb of music, probably closer to 60, just over 13000 total tracks. And there's stuff I haven't ripped down because I can never remember what it is.
I hope she survives until her first rehab.
Cold, man, cold.
My next big project is digitizing about 200 LP's that are out of print and most likely will never make it to CD. Lot's of 80's 12" remixes and such. I just need to spend the money on my turntable and a collection of really good stylus or two. My old Pioneer unit has long since died. My plan is to buy a Technics SL1200 this year and hopefully have all the digitizing, cleanup, and track editing done by next summer.
I have about 300GB of music scattered over CD-Rs, DVD-/+Rs, and two computers. Two-thirds of it is in .flac, .shn, .ape, or lossless-wma, so there probably isn't as much music as you might think. Also, at least three-quarters are live bootleg recordings.
