Still a good idea for the rest of us.
Yeah, that really isn't practical for me. But maybe when we get HD-DVD ROM or Blu-Ray ROM, I could fit the library on 8 - 10 of those.

When I get home this weekend and import some new CDs I got, the iTunes library will probably hit 200GB.

The funny thing I think about iTunes is library just gets larger and larger. With properly managed smart playlist, there is not much problem to access the entire library in a few click. The downside is the hard drive space isn't enough to hold the entire library, which force users to search larger and larger storage product. (evil money collect plan by Apple and hard driver manufactury?)

Or better yet, just install MacDrive on the PC, so it can read HFS+ volumes

I've noticed my Mac can access HFS+ formatted drives a bit faster than FAT32 formatted ones.
