0 songs 0.0 days of listening 0GBs :)

Alright, so I scrapped my iTunes to make room for an HD movie I'm editing, but I have some 97GB of music on a LaCie BigDisk (some 15,000 tracks). I just transfer what I want to listen to on my 60GB iPod.

If that's the case, I should have half of a song. :( :p

I've got 2577 songs, 8.6 days, 16.66 GB in my library, and 214 podcasts, being 3.6 days and 5.8 GB.

That being said, I think 80 GB and even the prospect of 100 or even 120 GB iPods to be rather ridiculous. Granted if you load a ton of movies on, it might be worth it, but I wouldn't want to watch any videos with the iPod, unless I used the iPod AV cable.
 
6,196 songs, 17.2 days, 31.64 GB. Want to go lossless as soon as I can get a iPod big enough to hold them.

18,125 songs 103.73GB. Mostly encoded as Mp3 (the ones I ripped from my cds's) and then the itunes store format for the rest. I didn't include my personal music that I work on because it's mostly chopped into samples and clips and would just pad the number.

I still have a fair bit of ripping to do, I find it a bit tedious so I just do a few albums here and there...and then I have the records to get through *shudder* now that is a pain to rip / separate...unless someone knows an easier way? I just play it through the line in and then manually stop after each track.

As far as listening to them all goes, I like(d) them all at one time or another for some odd reason...I like everything from classical, opera, new age, hip hop, r&b, rock, alternative, metal, then a mix of foreign stuff...


Oh and to whomever said that the prospective 120gb ipod is ridiculous...That would be the only way I could fit my current stuff on to an ipod :D Right now I just use a shuffle for going to the gym. But if they came out with a 120GB ipod that would be terrific, then I would have an easier way to backup my collection !
 
I have a measly 0. Thats cause my PC:mad: crashed and I was not smart enough to make a media partition or use a BACKUP! Before the crash I had roughly 10k. Even then I had not put my complete library of music on there. MY goal is to have 20K by New Years!:eek: Wish me luck!

Sounds like you'll have a lot of re-ripping to do :eek:

Well, its all in how you define "biggest".


I've printed out the binary of one song on old 80 column IBM Punch Cards....its 6 boxes and weighs around 30lbs :D :D :D


-hh
 
10589 songs, 35.1 days...i try to keep itunes and my ipod synched, so a lot of my cds arent on itunes...when the hell im going to find time to listen to 35 days of music is another question entirely
 
21.5GB's worth oddly enough I only have 139 songs.. (Ripped movies, tv shows and pocasts for my apple tv to come and suck them all up :) )
 
Re-Ripping To Lossless

I'm slowly re-ripping all my CDs to lossless. Some of them are beginning to show their age.

7314 ( of which 3698 are ALAC ), 128GB.
