pardon my french...but GOD DAMN SON! That's a ton of music, movies, and more haha. I only have 1800 songs and like two videos in mine. I'm only rocking a total of 10GB or so. Then again, I'm a complete and utter metal head so there's only so much music out there for metalheads

You're right; way too much music. However, I just received a 1TB internal drive for Christmas -- need to fill it!

What type of metal do you prefer?

Blondie :) · Jan 2, 2011, 11:44 PM

I'll listen to all kinds of metal. But I'm a more recent metal kind of guy. Death Metal, all the different types of core metals, and so on. Personal favorites are Lamb Of God, August Burns Red, As Blood Runs Black, Chelsea Grin, WhiteChapel, and so on. Are you a metal listener yourself?

I have about 770GB Music/Movie/TV Show/Podcast/Books combined. Not the largest but decent I think.

fortunecookie · Jan 3, 2011, 01:49 AM

My itunes library is only around 5gb. Only big 4 music for me.

smurfjammer · Jan 3, 2011, 02:34 AM

I have 67.84 GB of Music / 261.90 GB of TV Shows / 526.39 GB of Movies = 856.13 GB in total. (plus some more Movies on spare HD's)

chrismacguy · Jan 3, 2011, 08:22 AM

I have 75.80GB of Music/ 355.80GB of Movies/ 250GB of TV Shows/ 20GB of Podcasts,Books etc. Not big, but still pretty decent - its all on an external now thank goodness - kept filling up my Scratch Disk

eNcrypTioN · 08:58 AM

I have around 680GB and 85% of that is music.

Chris 123 · Jan 3, 2011, 07:15 PM

My itunes is 868gb. 50gb music, 405gb movies, 341gb tv, the rest is hd movie trailers. I also have this library backed up to another hd.

Dagless · Jan 17, 2011, 10:05 AM

I used to have 200gb TV+film and 35gb music. But I recently lost my external drive which had all my videos on, so I'm down to 35gb!

Maybe a bit more once I rip my videos off my iPod...

WesCole · Jan 17, 2011, 11:38 AM

I think I have ~1.3 TB of movies, music, and TV shows combined.

gco212 · Jan 17, 2011, 12:38 PM

38.7 GB of music and 318 GB of movies and TV but I don't use iTunes for that. The video collection has really started sky rocketing since I began saving all my shows and films in 720p.

dlimes13 · Jun 24, 2011, 02:00 PM

Well my iTunes only library is around 20GB music, 5GB movies/tv shows. But stored on external devices and not in iTunes: 150GB Music, 3.46TB Movies (2 Drives), 7.7TB TV Shows (4 drives). Not to mention over 5TB of software and games on other drives, all bundles in an 18TB storage server.

g0odfr1end102 · Jun 30, 2011, 05:53 PM

I run with 3567 songs: 17,88 gigs. I still know them all by heeart, and god knows my iTunes is continuously filling up!!

Jmouse · Jul 24, 2011, 11:46 PM

Movies and Tv Series.

about 500 GB of Songs.

1984world · Aug 25, 2011, 10:47 PM

I have over 10 terabytes between music, tv shows, movies, etc.

dkranz · Aug 28, 2011, 03:14 PM

What is a good program to clean up my iTunes Library?

zachlegomaniac · Sep 15, 2011, 06:38 PM

70 GB, but the movies and tv shows help.

ataboc · Sep 16, 2011, 09:53 PM

92.66 gb

Jamesdevil · Sep 19, 2011, 07:33 PM

Virtually all V0 encoded, some random comedy and mixtapes at lesser quality.

Habitus · Sep 26, 2011, 01:06 PM

All,

It's good to see that this thread is still alive and thriving.

My library as of 9-26-11:

71,372 songs; 464.04GB

401 Movies; 62.15GB

papoopeepoo · Sep 30, 2011, 10:36 PM

Currently I have 61.7 days of music. That includes very few (<20) long spoken word tracks. Most is in 256VBR AAC quality, 25% in Apple lossless format.

Total of 23785 tracks, 151.23GBs.

All organized to the 'T' and backed up 3 times in different locations. This is very important data!
