well hey if you want entire albums go for it, but generally speaking you find one to three good songs on your average album which takes up space if you are holding the rest of the tunage.
do your own thing though..

JazX.. imo you're talking nonsense about albums...
to me a truly great album is a piece of art, only to be listened to from begining to end... not a collection of maybe singles and filler.
but you can have yours and i'll have mine. each to their own.

almost 6k songs. i only ripped about half my cd collection though.
do you guys have a cd collection behind these huge lists or just download?

exactly, why rip one song?
most of the least liked songs of a partcular album i come around to and becomes a fav

11,874 on my drive, about 7800 on my iPod.
Preferring random songs to albums is for Britney's fans.
All my playlists are albums organized through iTunes with track numbers, album names, no genre nonsense. I know where everything is.

Yes to each their own but again I would hardly call full albums a waste of space... actually I would more so call just singles a waste of space. I can get sick of one song pretty quick but a good album can grow on me through time.

do you all with itunes take the time to rate your songs?
that helps

that shit's not risiding on my drives!
my parents have just entered the digital age and want to have it converted ever since we got my mom an mp3 player in her cherokee last year, they take a lot of road trips to national parks and such

I too prefer entire albums though
i agree that songs off the album grow on you and never is the radio single my favorite
gorillaz's demon days and the i am x album are both GREAT examples of this
my 5k are on a storage dedicated drive so it doesn't slow me down
genres i need though, be it the original genre encoding or i name it myself
easy to set music when guests are over that way
itunes is the best though, anyone not using smart playlists is missing out
rating my music? nope

if you have 197 gigs of tunes, i dare say sir.. you are not a fan of anything, but a fan of everything
which means you are not a fan of anything

I have 709 mp3's

I use smart playlist to separate my music.
I too have all my music on a spearate drive. As a matter of fact I have EVERYTHING on a separate drive or partition from the OS... even my apps. When I upgrade, I simply erase the OS and install the new one with having to really bak up anything except a few bookmarks and emails.

I disagree with not being a fan of anything.
I am a fan of everything/ I worked at a record store for 8 years of my life and then with labels and bands and distribution companies.
I am simply a fan of music in general, a different style of a different mode on a different day.
Even when I was heavily involved in "scenes" i always listened to other things.
I got into Kurtis Blow, Fat Boys, and Eric B around the same time i was buying Quiet Riot and Iron Madien records.
When I was listening to Youth of Today I was also jamming King Crimson.
I simply love music.

The way i organize my tunes is this:
- ALL tunes are on a separate drive
- ALL are organized by artist name/album
- for singles I create folders for each genre... example (rock singles, punk singels,...etc.) and then I tag them with an asterisk at the front of the artist name like this:
*Duran Duran "Hungry Like the Wolf"
This way ALL the singles when imported into itunes will reside on the top of the library list instead of mixed in with the albums.
