Been working on my music collection allot this week. Hey I am sick and have this is the most strenuous thing I can do. Howard gave me a gift certificate to the iTunes store so I bought R.E.M.’s latest CD. I also ripped a bunch of CD’s. I now have a massive 30 something gig’s of music. The question is do I get rid of the CD’s now that they are on the computer? Dan thinks so, but I will keep them in case of problems with the MP3 version of the music.
The good news about my ripping frenzy is that all the music is nicely organized. Some of the original CD’s I ripped years ago were not categorized or labeled correctly. I even went back and re-ripped some of those so I could correct some errors and encode them with the higher 160 bit encoding, instead of the 128 I did back when I started this odyssey in 1998ish. Man I haven’t used some CD’s since 99. I am getting old.
