Music On Your Computer

Well first of all, i download a lot of my albums via amazon or cdbaby, which i pay for. Also:
--- Quote ---As of late 2008 they (RIAA) have announced they will stop their lawsuits and instead are attempting to work with ISPs who will use a three strike warning system for file sharing, presumably based upon an accusation=guilt policy, and upon the third strike will cut off internet service all together. However as of 2009 no major ISPs have announced, and Verizon has publicly denied, any involvement with this plan.

I'm never too concerned with the RIAA.
As for the not being able to listen to all the albums, this is true. I have quite a few albums that I have yet to listen to. But i like having them whenever i see the album because if i don't download it then, i might forget about the band later. I will eventually get to them all. Alot of the albums that i download, i listen to a song or two and realize its not something that i enjoy, so i delete it.
And when i said "10-100" albums a day, the "100" is not the norm, there has just been a couple of occasions when I just went download crazy and downloaded a lot of albums, most of which were albums that I used to love and realized i didn't have.
EDIT: To Jimbunny's comment, the RIAA didnt know how much music that the person had downloaded when they would sue someone, it was just a random selection process done through IP addresses. You would be almost as susceptible to getting sued as me if you have ever downloaded any music illegally. When they would sue somebody, they would have no knowledge of the person other than their IP address.

This is how I roll:
Music Folder/ Artist Name / Year - Album Title / Tracknumber - Track Title
Freddybear:
I'm down with the /Music/artist/album/track_title.mp3 (or ogg or flac or whatever) name format. Classical music is by composer instead of artist. Mostly. Except Horowitz and Perlman and Segovia and Parkening.
BUT, I've been getting majorly anal about fixing up the tags so the FOOBAR music player works optimally. So all of "The Flaming Lips" are "The Flaming Lips" and not "Flaming Lips, The" or "Lips" or whatever.
And getting the right year into the date tag.
And getting track number tags for those CD that I ripped before I realized that the default in the ripper didn't include track numbers. That has been a lot of fun. :roll:

Music\Arist\Album for me. I usually toss individual song downloads into a "Various Artists" folder, though, just because it's a hassle making a subfolder for each artist if I'm d/ling a lot.
s0ck ninja:
about 2GB of my music lives on my hard drive. 5GB live on a hard drive in a shed across my lawn on the network server. the remaining 8 or 9 gigs are on a hard drive in florida named "buster." the folders are all named some horribly mangled misspelling of "music" and that's really as organized as it gets. ahhh itunes.
