How much music do you have on your comp? - Page 2 - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

hawkeye · 07-02-2003, 04:42 PM

3000+ at 192kbps = 17+ Gigs

flamingpeach · 07-02-2003, 05:12 PM

I've got 10.4 gigs on this pc. Alot are ripped from my own Cd's. I should really take them all off on day.

i blame my laziness

alec · 07-02-2003, 07:36 PM

34 GIGs (24 days).

It's hard to find non-modern music on most services except direct connect. Also full albums are hard to find. If I can't find it on the internet, then I buy it and rip it.

bundy · 07-03-2003, 06:25 PM

omg
i feel miniscule.
i´ve only got about 100 songs.

Launchpad · 07-04-2003, 12:39 AM

oi, i thought i was a hardcore DL'er, but i've got nothing on you lot.

darkmagnus · 07-04-2003, 07:23 AM

9099 songs, 37.7 GB and I am still in the process of ripping my CD collection.

I also have a large SHN collection of live shows

Nebula2020 · 07-04-2003, 11:54 AM

52.3 GB, 7315 Files in 632 Folders. True.

Nothing backed up, dreading the day my drive dies.

SocialAbortion · 07-05-2003, 12:29 AM

My collection is small compared to a lot of you guys. I've got 919 songs, taking up 3.2 GB. But, my HD is only 20 GB.

DEI37 · 07-05-2003, 06:16 AM

I just went through and reorganized my stuff, so that it's named properly, and has the right tagging in the file, so you know what it is when you play it back. Had to do about 275 songs that I hadn't done yet. The total is 1,234 songs, consuming 6.24GB on the server's hard drive.

shinji · 07-05-2003, 02:52 PM

7711 songs
46 gigs

jals · 07-05-2003, 05:24 PM

I have about 800 songs, mostly full albums, mostly ripped from CD.

But the day I can't download music without the risk of being sued is the day I stop buying CDs.

Fortunately this day will never come because the RIAA are thinking with their wallets.

frankx · 07-06-2003, 06:48 PM

About 20 gigs. Most of it ripped from my own CD's. I don't really do much downloading anymore.

Destrox · 07-07-2003, 11:19 AM

4576 Songs - 419 Folders - 140~ some Different Bands

19.7 Gig

About 90% of that are my own Cd backups.

merkerguitars · 07-08-2003, 10:14 PM

about 4900 and 21 gigs...

Eiresol · 07-11-2003, 09:33 AM

14gbs about 90% are ripped from my own cds or downloads of songs I already have on cd that I couldnt be arsed ripping.

Donkeypuncher · 07-11-2003, 10:28 AM

100+ gigs, well over 17,000 tracks at this point.

Still lots of 128s in there, but I replace those as time allows with higher quality stuff. Newsgroups, Napster, Morpheus, Kazaa; they've all been my friends, but I buy music like crazy and always have. I still have 10 crates of vinyl, boxes of tapes and well over 3,000 CDs. A huge part of my MP3s are ripped from those sources so I don't have to wear down the originals - especially with hard-to-find material like a Buckingham/Nicks album or something like that...

I have specifically bought a ton of music because of things I stumbled across online. There's a Canadian band called The Watchmen, specifically, who would probably be very happy their stuff ended up online, as I own 4 of their CDs now. Same goes for people like Jim's Big Ego, Martin Sexton...the list goes on and on. With no good radio stations anymore (thanks a TON, ClearChannel...), P2P is how I hear new things these days and if I like it, I go buy it. Just like if I heard it on the radio.

portwineboy · 07-12-2003, 11:25 AM

2560 songs/9.29 gig, mostly at 128 (my hearing sucks anyway). Probably 50/50.

TheComingCurse · 07-13-2003, 02:48 AM

About 40 or so gigs, mostly in -r3mix/-aps VBR.

Ps. That Av makes my head bounce up and down Cheese.

intecel · 07-13-2003, 11:29 AM

<--- about 8 gigs of random mp3s here...

crow_daw · 07-13-2003, 11:45 PM

800+ songs on my computer, and I got this bitch on Christmas, AND thats with dial-up. Maybe I'm overestimating myself, but thats not bad no?

Speed_Gibson · 07-14-2003, 02:32 AM

Somewhere around 30 GBs now - all the CDs/LPs that I encode are in Flac format now, but I do have sizeable amount in APE though.
I do have 9 GBs of MP3s that I have DLed from emusic.com, but I f'ing hate to even look at mp3 for files that I encode, Ogg using at least the -q6 setting is the only lossless codec I wil touch anymore.

marken · 07-14-2003, 06:27 AM

2401 songs divided on my desktop and my laptop. I guard my collection with my life. I love it!

CCHSDawg · 07-14-2003, 08:58 AM

Just short of 2,000 and I need to rip several more of my CD's, too. The RIAA or whoever can thank Kazaa for letting me hear a track or two off of Talib Kweli's CD, or else I wouldn't have bought it yesterday. Same for Sean Paul, Boomkat (which I now regret buying), Musiq, N.E.R.D., and Our Lady Peace.

h2ogo69 · 07-14-2003, 11:51 AM

17.1g
thats 4177 mp3's
and 141 albums most of whihc i ripped others i ripped from a friend and ive d/led a hard to find ep or demo or 2

1234567 · 07-16-2003, 04:01 AM

Yes.

sportsrule101 · 07-18-2003, 12:07 PM

only have about 5 gb, mostly cd's that i really wanted

crackpot · 07-18-2003, 03:13 PM

Probably under 100 tunes, but then, my computer predates the abacus, so there you go.

Zar · 07-18-2003, 04:25 PM

1255 songs, 5.12 GBs. Mostly downloaded from Kazaa or the network at my college.

Kaos · 07-18-2003, 08:48 PM

Just over 400 songs. 60 comedy songs/stand up.

A lot of them I have the CD's for, others I couldn't find the CD to buy (Like B-sides and shit).

Some of them I owed on cassette and am not spending money to replace on CD. As far as I'm concerned, I paid for them already (on cassette) and I have the right to own that music in any format I want to listen to it in.

Kaos · 07-18-2003, 08:51 PM

And BTW, I d/l the entire new Metallica CD, St. Anger. Total garbage, I couldn't sit through even 2 minutes of any song. SO bad, they weren't even worth having for free and I deleted them all.

jpnpk · 07-18-2003, 11:28 PM

About 6 Gb, mostly from Kazaa. A good way to find old music not available on CD or vinyl. Anyone into old Swedish Punk Rock? I have quite a lot. :-)

Lestat · 07-18-2003, 11:31 PM

10 gigs and 15 CDR's full of MP3's.

Raw Kuts · 07-18-2003, 11:58 PM

Just under 11,000 files totaling 42 gigs...

And then comes the 40 pounds of CDs (yes, I measure them in pounds because I stopped counting them a long time ago).

neo23 · 07-19-2003, 08:04 PM

A meager 24 gigs, mostly full albums.

grayman · 07-21-2003, 04:35 AM

I had 400, but was too lazy to move them when I got my new pc, so now I have about 20.

labob · 07-24-2003, 12:38 AM

24.4 gb / 5167 songs most @ 192 kbps

95% are rips from my own collection, and a few from P2P

dogma13554u · 07-24-2003, 08:32 PM

22gigs, roughly 12000 tracks

Acme-143 · 07-25-2003, 01:01 AM

411 files for a total of 1.47 gigs.....56 different artists. I would have more but I can't find half the music I listen too.

girlsnotgrey · 07-25-2003, 08:10 PM

I just got cable internet and ive downloaded 300 songs on my laptop the past couple of days, i have like 800 on our other computer. Im really not afraid of the RIAA though cuase i got kazza lite
