Rap, to its credit, has lasted more than the decade which spawned it in the mainstream - whether it will still be with us in 30 years is a tougher question. Having lived through the disco era first time around, I was horrified when people dug it up for a second time in the 90s. There are some genres better left in the era which spawned them - ragtime, bluegrass and disco should all be left to the diehard fans, IMO.  There are times when I can absolutely understand why some classical buffs refuse to listen to any form of (modern) popular music, and I never thought I'd say that. Getting old, grandpa. eek.gif

I recently got all my doubles out. It's such a pain to get them out, but it saved me a lot of space once I got it done.

iTunes has 11615 songs (34.5 days 71.83GB) of lossy music. Clementine has 4182 "songs" (15 days 12 hours, 210GB) of FLAC music. I say "songs" because some are entire albums ripped as a single track.

 

I've also suffered the dreaded ruined HDD. I've since learned to back up all of my music and files onto my 2TB external and keep them on both my Mac and PC HDD's. Never *knock on wood* should all three go out simultaneously.

Why would you need to use iTunes to know? Can't stand iTunes myself, doesn't support FLAC, pushes all Apples own stuff, no thanks. There are other audio library applications out there (i.e. Foobar 2000).

Well, a lot of my music is in "sets" from trance events and what not, so unless foobar can count it songs from each set lol.

Just be sure your ID3 tags are correct. Track number, total tracks, disc number, total discs. And, of course, don't put it on random. You should be fine.
