How much music do you have on your hard drive?
I was screwing around this morning and it says I have close to 20GB / 9000 files.
I didn't realise I had that much in there.

24,731 songs, 174.98 GB. i started re-ripping my cds as WAV files, so some are extra huge.

the one tremendous downside in using itunes is that i'll add something that was sent to me or i downloaded and then i'll forget about it. there is so much shit in there that i;'ve never even listened to. there;s also a lot of actual shit in there that i grabbed one place or another even if i thought it might be crap, just so i could know what i was talking about when i said it was crap.





If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

Right now I am sifting through the MP3s and deleting the shit ones and relabeling ones with new titles that are more acurate and putting them in folders based on artist name.
It's going to take a while.

i keep all my music on a network drive that runs iTunes server, so any computer in my house running iTunes has access to the music. the drive has 2TB (roughly 2,000GB) of diskspace and is a RAID configuration, which means there are multiple copies of the files spread across the four disks in the drive. should one drive fail, the data is backed up across the others.

i also use this drive to back up all my work files which are on my computer.

the super nerdy part is that the network drive is backed up to one of my webservers for offsite backup. you know, in caset the house burns down or the drive is stolen or something.

Anyone have a easy way to equalize the volume on this stuff? I downloaded a program a while back but it kind of sucked.

I have a ton of different levels of stuff, from big studio stuff to rare demos with volume all over the place. So when at the gym if I have the Ipod on random I go from not being able to hear one track to going deaf on the next and end up playing whole albums.

The itunes thing I THINK has to be done for each individual track. Theres no way in hell thats happening ever.

I've used Mp3 Gain to normalize the audio of my tracks and it's been pretty good.

A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

How does this work? Can I just dump my whole mp3 folder in a normalize it or do I have to mess with individual tracks?

I bought a 200 GB external drive just for my music, and I think it's 85% full. And I only have a little more than half of my physical CD collection on there.
