I finally got all my music organized, and I decided to find out how much I have.
Here is what WinAmp tells me:
6247 tracks in playlist, average track length: 6:36
Estimated playlist length: 687 hours 10 minutes 21 seconds
-
iTunes tells me that I have:
21979 tracks.
68 days, 4 hours, 3 minutes and 14 seconds of music.
122.84 GB
-
I spend all day listening to/playing music so people are infinitely confused when they see that my collection of music is 100 songs. :-)
(I like to leave them confused)
-
Sadly my last archive got blown away, so I lost nearly 400GB of music. It is all on DVDs, though. Just need to copy them over.
Then again, I generally stick to newer stuff, since there is always more to listen to.
-
My music is repeatedly moved about on my computer to different drives and such, so I have given up on making a solid playlist, but I currently have about 6 hours, 4 minutes and 7 second of tunes qued up. a bunch of stuff from (you guessed it) mogwai to queens of the stoneage.
-
Yesterady I burnt almost everything into DVDs, leaving only the stuff I listen consistently. So I've only have 354 hours 25 minutes, from !!! to Zoobombs (no ZZ Top on the hard drive)
-
According to itunes I have:
12322 songs
67.2 Days of playing time (Damn you kai!)
There are like 25 albums I have that aren't on here but I need to get a second hardrive first.
-
I have a pretty fair amount on DVDs. I've been meaning to getting another hard drive, but I haven't done it.
-
Genuine question: how do you guys get the time to listen to 100+ GB of music?
-
Buy/download, press play.
-
I can't give exact stats since I'm not at my home computer, but I have 80-something CDs and around 1200 songs. It's about 7 gigs of music.
-
Genuine question: how do you guys get the time to listen to 100+ GB of music?
No social life.
You have to make sacrifices, you see.
Anyway. I have about 300 bought CDs and about the same number on my PC (about 30 gigs, I guess). Give or take a few.
-
I only have about 2100 or so songs on my iTunes, but there are still a lot of cds (about 200 or so) that I still need to import so...
-
No social life.

Or you just listen to them at work. If you spend 7-20 hours a day in front of a computer working, you find you have a lot of time for music.

Genuine question: how do you guys get the time to listen to 100+ GB of music?
Well I don't listen to all of it at once- theres probably stuff on my computer that I haven't listened to in almost a year. Eventually though, I'll come back and listen to it though. I also was out of school last semester (while all my friends were away) so I had a whole lot of free time.
Then again I have just under 60gigs- drive space is a bad way of measuring the amount of music since high quality cuts take up a lot more space than lower quality (to a factor of like 10).
-
Yeah, I rarely listen to something more than a few times before I go off and listen to something again, and I won't come back to it in a long while unless I really love it.
-
Winamp told me that I have:
3094 mp3s
Lasting a total of 215 hours 2 minutes and 15 seconds
Average length - I dunno how I can do that on winamp, and I can't be arsed to do the calculation. So instead, my most played song apparently (which quite blatantly hasn't been updated in a fucking age):
Radiohead - Climbing Up The Walls
-
I ripped every CD I own and it's in iTunes along with practically anything I've ever downloaded.
6492 songs, 16 days, 19 hours, 42 min, 16 seconds, 28.73 GB
Hm. Thought it'd be more. But I totally win compared to my boyfriend. Yay.
-
My music collection is small in comaprison to the prevous peoples but its still not to bad.
4121 songs 11.5 Days and 20.25 gigs
-
i like to live dangerously so i have no music stored on any computer anywhere. only music i have is on my iPod. dangerous.
3499 items, 8.7 days, 11.94 GB
If you spend 7-20 hours a day in front of a computer working, you find you have a lot of time for music.

My backup hard drive crashed. It had all my music on it. Luckily I had about 4000 of those songs on my mp3 player. But still. I lost like half my music, and my homework, and the songs that I recorded with my friends and by myself, and my backlog of Seinfeld episodes. I'm sad. On a plus note though, when I went to return the drive (under warranty) they didn't have the same model, so I paid $10 more and got like 50x the amount of space I used to have. Woop!

Windows Media Player:
1603 songs
107 hours, 28 min. and ten seconds worth of music
7.56 GB
I don't have much but most of it is quality.
-
i feel less nerdy compared to you guys. thanks!
7604 tracks
475 hours
33,53 gigabytes
-
I'd have more but, the computer I have my illegal downloading software on, is really slow and currently disconnected from the internet, so now I'm having to bum most of it off of my friends.
-
I've only got about 20 gigs of music right now, with only about 3 of them on my playlist.
-
6632 songs, just over 17 days worth, about 25.5 GB. there are a bunch of cds i haven't put on there and i haven't gotten anything offline in a long time, but...i don't really care. it's enough for me.
-
My PC's probably getting on a bit by modern standards, and I'm saving up for an external hard drive. Therefore, at the minute, I think I can estimate about 7 GB on the PC & probably another 8 GB on DVDs. I tend to rip the CDs from my collection very sporadically on my iTunes and delete the files when I'm running out of space, so they don't really count in the proceedings.
It's having programs like Cubase & Sibelius on my hard disk, I tell ya! Greedy disk-space munchers.
-
My last calculation estimated about 15 days worth of music on my computer and CDs. This does not include the 200 or so albums I have on vinyl.
-
I feel left out. I've only got:
712 items,
1.8 days
3.6 gigs.
Somewhat annoyingly, I want to get my stats up, but I've got no money. I guess I've got to gets me a job. Or rob a bank, whichever requires the least effort.
-
I don't have much but most of it is quality.
My philosophy as well. Plus, I'm straight up poor.
I'm at school, so I don't know exactly what I have on iTunes, but I just pushed shuffle on my iPod and it tells me I have 2105 audio files. That's about 9 gbs from what I recall. I also delete the stuff I don't listen to anymore off of my iPod.
-
The full nerd out:
In total (on my PC): 4 weeks, 1 day, 14 hours, 47 minutes (8920 tracks)
Ripped from CDs I own: 2 weeks, 4 days, 21 hours, 50 minutes (5783 tracks)
Legal, free net downloads (net labels, etc.): 4 days, 9 hours, 43 minutes (1181 tracks)
Illegal downloads, rips: 4 days, 6 hours, 13 minutes (1344 tracks)
Recorded vinyl I own: 2 days, 1 hour, 0 minutes (612 tracks)
I feel like I've just taken part in some kind of music otaku version of a penis-length-measuring competition, but I use these stats as a kind of reminder that, no, I don't need to go and browse the shelves of the record store and buy something semi-randomly. When I have my music player on shuffle on just the CDs playlist I still don't recognise heaps of the tracks when they start up. :| Dumbness. And downloading drives me nuts... I can't believe how much of an addict I am.

Oh, seriously. I actually made myself uninstall DC++ just because once I open up the program I keep downloading more and more shit like, all day.
-
i have just over 320 cds, but itunes has a happy 5180 songs in it, because some of my albums have alot of songs, and i get some songs off borrowed cds + my parents cds (my dad has some good cds) and i download off myspace, purevolume and band sites to check out bands.

4.768 Songs
12.2 Days
24.54 Gigs
This is my reconstructed library, I probably lost like 5+ gigs when my harddrive died. I just don't delete songs unless I specifically don't like them. So this is my collection starting like 4 years ago. It grows in swells, eg, last week I only had like 4,500 songs. Download then play is a good way of going through music really fast.
