I have 4026 songs in my library, some of that is my sisters, but the majority is on her computer. I should move them to a external hard drive. That would save so much space.

I have 8,020 songs; 39.08 GB. I'm thinking of really cleaning it up because when I put on shuffle, some songs that come on are so random and make me think how and why I ever got them. -_-

I'm fond of certain songs that may fall into other genres, but I have whole albums of bands and singers that I do NOT listen to regularly, or even once in a while for that matter. I don't know why I have music like that in my iTunes... -_-

I just cleaned mine up now I have 29.9gb all my favorites from various artists. I found if I want to hear the whole album just plop the CD in.

I currently have about 1,000 most of them fit on my nano, and about 1/3 on my shuffle. I really need to get more i am going to have to take the time to copy all of my cds over.

Although I own (literally) thousands of CDs (and have bought hundreds of songs from iTunes as well), I have found over the years that there is little actual value in having a collection any larger than what you are practically going to have time to listen to.

People report crap like they have 80,000 songs (mostly stolen, of course) like that's supposed to be impressive. What would actually be impressive is if you could name them, or say you've heard them all.

I prefer music that means something to me. It's not an art form I think is better in bulk (come to think of it, no art form is better in bulk).
