How many songs do you have in your music library? - Page 17

653GB, 21357 songs, 94% lossless.

I've got wayyy less than most people in this thread, 982. It's made up of a lot of electro/house/rock/rap. I don't understand how some people can have so much music, I couldn't possibly enjoy all of that music. My musical tastes arwe limited as they without throwing in a few thousand other songs.

Always good to have variety. Yes to each his own.

Very true! I don't mean any offence to those who have lots of songs but I couldn't ever listen to that much. 

You never know you could become worse than us all. Seasons change, people change :P.

Yeah, I mean.. for a good two years, music was my life. I'm tapering off a bit now and shifting my focus onto art, photography and other things (like finding a job) now that I'm trying to get my bipolar disorder in check. But, before all my days were completely dysfunctional and based almost entirely around what album I was going to listen to next. Nowadays I find it too hard to sit down if I'm manic, or I'm too depressed and disinterested with life to care about music. 

TL;DR

Life is crazy and stuff.

I have about 2000 (.flac) tracks, consuming about 50GB on a NAS running Windows Home Server.  These I play with jRiver Media Center.  However, I use MOG to a much greater extent.

1 TB of metal and classic :)

where the choice of the classics?

It's easy to get up to 20,000 or so tracks when you listen to music 4+ hours daily (at the very least as background music even if you aren't 100% attentive to it), and have been doing so for over 10+ years. You find a new band every couple of weeks, revisit old tastes, etc. When you realize you really like a specific genre you go and do a ton of research and pick up 2 dozen "essential" albums of that genre in a single night and focus on them exclusively for the next fortnight until your interest moves to another genre or thing in music.   

982 is good; if you are adventurous it will get much bigger given time.

it's not just about listening...collecting is certainly an obsession with some (like myself).  i have albums i've probably never listened to beyond a track or 2 but i could never subtract from the collection...cheap large scale digital storage has not helped the situation either

I'm constantly deleting music. Can't stand a cluttered collection

On my external I have a little above 90k and on my pc just above 1k.

I like music. A lot.

129GB, 15,885 songs. Been working on my music collection since 2001, it's getting harder and harder to find some decent vocal trance or plain old good styled stuff like Robert Miles.
