Do the switch mate - You can either have slightly bigger OGG files, with a huge jump in quality, the same size files with better quality, or smaller files with the same quality as MP3. Back to me : 886 tracks in playlist, average track length: 3:58 Estimated playlist length: 58 hours 47 minutes 53 seconds Now where near you lot - But all ripped from CD as OGG - Neatly Organised into Artist-->Album-->Artist-Song Name.ogg. Currently creating playlists for all of them, so can listen to individual CD's when I want. Also all them are ripped to my ipod @ 192kpbs AAC (though I would rather use OGG). Also trying to get Artwork with them, know any sites that have *ahem* alternatives (if you get what I mean). With full details from the pamphlet inside? As I dont have a scanner I cant backup the artwork myself. Yup I second that, P2P is pretty crap for any kind of music these days - You can hardly ever find the music you want, and almost always its ripped by a bad encoder @ 128kpbs. Though you have to admit most of it would be encoded by people with little knowledge of the alternatives, and thinking that 128kbps bitrates are "near-CD-quality"
4740 files, and 40.6GB....mostly ripped oggs though, at maximum quality (bitrate is around ~500). All on one winamp playlist as well man I get tired of scrolling....
I tend to use P2P as a "taster". If I like it, I'll buy the CD, if not I'll delete it anyway. Lower bitrates are an incentive to buy it if the music is good
Yeah but what goods that when the intro 30secs long, or theres a few songs that start the same? Death
i dont think it the first 30 secs i belive its random if not from the middle, but i do see the issue your bringing up
2,830 (And all recorded from cd's that i own, honest...) Finally finished organizing them (for the second time, after crash) EVERYTHING as it should be now... (consistent artists, no CAPS in names, all the tracks added etc. etc.)
here @ Mods: if this is inapropriate (sp?), please delete. He stated that he owned the cd's, though...
about 120gb on my machine / which doubles as f/w and wifi ap. and a least 100dvd's full went through a stage of taking a full feed from newservers
5300 mp3's at 22GB, all ripped from my own purchased CD's for personal use only I would like to point out. Don't agree with stealing music, if you can't afford it, you shouldn't have it! Haven't finished copying all my CD's to mp3 yet either, probably another 100+ CD's to go.
i have 903 mp3's that r sorted and i listen to but i also have 436 mp3's to sort through that i have just downloaded and to test if i like them
