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.

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

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
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.

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.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
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.

Heh. Rebelling against her dead father.
I hope she survives until her first rehab.
If Lindsay Lohan has made it this far, Frances Bean can get to 22 or so.

Awww, really I just hadn't pegged her as the rich kid she obviously is until she went off on Kate Spade bags. There's going to be a lot of drugs available to her and with her parents history with addiction, it bodes ill. I don't want any harm to come to her, but she's going to be swimming in an absolute ocean of cocaine in about two years.

I've got a server with a 160 GB array in it on a GigE connection to most of my machines and 802.11b for the rest. It makes streaming the audio so nice and slick. I've got everything encoded at 160k MP3 or AAC if I got it from the iTunes music store. 160k seems to be a decent balance for listening to/auditioning things for me, and then when I need the real deal I've got my 2000 or so CD's alphabetized in the next room.
