How many songs do you have on your mp3 player?

[Arek the Absolute]

Edge's player is the mp3 player of the devil.
Every one of you dolts would have said it as well so I decided to get out before continuing this thread.

I have about 4000 or so on mine at the moment.

[DragonFireKai]

1,395 songs right now.

I used to have about 7,000 but my Hard Drive melted, so I'm slowly rebuilding my library.

[tasogare51]

I have between 6800 and 6900 songs.

I only have 500 or so megabytes left in my iPod. :sad:

[BlueMage]

1700 on iPod.

[EdgeCrusher]

I still have over 30 gigs free on mine.

[neminem]

I still have over 30 gigs free on mine.

So do I.

I also have approximately 60 gigs full.

[Xelebes]

I don't have an mp3 player. I don't have a discman, nor a walkman. I simply do without music when I'm not chilling or dancing and stuff.

[Murmeli Walan]

My old mp3 player has only 256 megs, so I constantly rotate. Right now, it's a bunch of Dethklok songs.

Currently on iTunes: 312 songs, 20.2 hours, 1.28 GB. I need to expand my hard drive before I can really get serious about music collecting.

[Evilhead]

I have two 4 gig players (a mini and a nano) and one 1 gig player (a new shuffle) so my playlists are relatively small. But being limited to 1000-1200 songs keeps my iPods fresh. I have about 50 gigs of tunes or so on my computer, but I only put my favorites or current albums on my iPods. It always seems like a good song is coming on and I rarely skip tracks. Each iPod has a slightly different feel since I use my mini as a car stereo, the nano as a general purpose iPod, and the shuffle for snowboarding/exercising. On the two 4 gig players I have generally the same playlist set up: one list with everything, one with hard/loud music, one with generally listenable music with most of the hard/fast stuff cut out, a playlist of current favorites and recently added songs, one list of more relaxing music, and one of just hip hop. The shuffle is mostly high energy songs that go well with snowboarding like punk and hardcore.

[EdgeCrusher]

Punk. ROFL.

[Theory of N]

113 songs filled...I have one of those old crappy iPod shuffles :sad:

[Evilhead]

Punk. ROFL.

Metal. ROTFLMAO.

[EdgeCrusher]

Metal > Rock > Rap > Kenny G > Punk

[parasoul]

4355......

[The Tromboner]

3832
About 10 added daily.

[The Instrumental Light]

i have about 1000 songs on my ipod nano.

[Lizz]

I gots 4505 songs

[Skrypnyk]

OVER NINE THOUSAND!!!!!!!!

k really like 800 something...

[watkinzez]

4373.
Mostly listening to podcasts lately, though.

[atmuh]

around 4500 i think

[Katsurugi]

0 songs

I still own a CD player and still use it pretty frequently.

[The Coop]

I uh... I don't own an MP3 player. Unless you count my PC (big and bulky, but oh so stylish as I walk about town), then I've got about five.

[Old Man Time]

9332. I have about 10 gigs of music that doesn't fit though, so the actual number is probably closer to 12000.

[Jimmy Jazz]

236. Not a lot, I know. Its only a 1 Gig.

[EdgeCrusher]

I have the complete first season of metalocalypse on mine too.

[Sonic]

156(all the pillows) on a 2 gig MP3 player. I need to take the songs I always skip off and add some diffrent stuff.

[Bongo Bill]

Something on the order of 1500. I'd have more but I've got a lot of really long and/or high-bitrate songs so it filled it up.

[Gollgagh]

9332. I have about 10 gigs of music that doesn't fit though, so the actual number is probably closer to 12000.

How is that supposed to work?

They have to be physically present on your player for them to count.

[Antipode]

Damn that's a lot of music. I have about 3500 so far on a 30 gig ipod. The thing is, I've tried to keep it narrowed down considerably - I once spent about 4 hours going through my music, deleting what I didn't like, sampling and deciding, and fixing the multitude of shitty ID3 tags. What a horrible day that was. Anyway, I keep current with it now and just do all that as I add stuff.

But honestly.

Even if I DIDN'T do that I can't possibly imagine having 12000 songs, and I love music.

Did you just like...rip and download everything you could find?

[Bigfoot]

I wish I had an mp3 player.

[Black Mage]

3954 songs @ 18.15GB...damn, where'd all these songs come from!?

[EdgeCrusher]

I have about 50 more dvdrs of mp3s, but its stuff that I'd probably never ever listen to.

[linkspast]

I have no MP3 player but I have about 5k songs on my external Hard drive.

You guys ever See how many days of music you would have. I think I have about 17 days of constant music.

[Bummerdude]

Somewhere over a thousand, maybe more.

[Syl]

I'm sitting at roughly 11,000 songs; 54 out of my 55 gigs filled. (60 gig ipod = 55 gigs)

I'm working on cleanup.

I have almost a month worth of pure music, played one song at a time from start to finish.

[Thin Crust]

Lets see, There are about 30 christian songs on my internal hard drive, and I have under 50 ocr mixes on my external hard drive. My sd card if you were wondering. Those are the only songs that I listen to. There are only 128 megs in the internal and 256 megs on the external if you wanted to know.

[anne amère]

[Brim]

When I had an MP3 player, it carried about 200 songs.
But now its dead and I just fill the void by untz untz untz untz

[Atomic Dog]

Usually around 100-115.

I only have minimal needs for a portable mp3 player - and it's basically for plugging into my car stereo when I have songs I haven't burned to an mp3 disc yet.

Incidentally, I find the whole "plug your ipod into your car" to be very tacky. My brother does that and it's... it's just not cool. It reminds me of people who used to use one of those tape converters to plug their CD player in their cars' stock AM/FM/Cassette deck because they were too poor or cheap to put in a decent deck.

It's just trashy.

I find it convenient. I hate fucking around with my FM transmitter (I use that at work because I don't like lugging my speakers around) while driving. It's also because I don't care enough to switch out the whole thing.

[EdgeCrusher]

I use an FM transmitter too, that I got from Alexand3r from here. Works great. I use it a lot changing from my car to my truck to my friends cars. I recently bought a Sony cd player though for my car that has the aux jack on the front though so I can go straight in that way.

[Bummerdude]

Okay, I've checked now and apparently I have 1031. I thought I had more.

[Zombie]

I have exactly 492 songs on my current MP3 player. 66 of which are OCRemixes. The rest is all of my other favorite bands and stuff. It kinda sucks having a 2 gig iPod nano. But hey, I didn't buy it, so I really can't complain.

[Guy In Rubber Suit]

I don't have an MP3 player. :( Though in my master playlist I have 10,737 songs. I hope to get an iPod soon.

[WesPip]

I think I have something in the area of 2000 right now, but I've been meaning to clear it out and start fresh. I find myself pressing the ">>" button way the hell too often.

[Mewtation]

I've got 2610 songs in my iTunes library, 665 of which are on my iPod Nano.

[atmuh]

I just looked on my winamp library and there are 41815 songs.

???????????????????

[atmuh]

now that my ipod plays spcs and nsfs there are like 15000 songs on it

:]

[Antipode]

now that my ipod plays spcs and nsfs there are like 15000 songs on it

:]

How do you do that with an ipod?

[Pyrion]

In WinAmp? 782 tracks, 47 hours worth of music. My media folder comprises almost 8000 tracks.

I haven't bothered trying to transfer any of this over to my mp3 player (a Toshiba GigaBeat 20GB I got for free) for two reasons.

1. Some of it is still in FLAC.
2. This damn thing only has a USB1.1 connection.

When I get finished reripping/transcoding everything back to MP3 I'll dedicate a couple of nights to copying it all over to the Gigabeat (I encoded 8.5GB over the weekend and I'm not yet finished).

[Guy In Rubber Suit]

How do you do that with an ipod?



Convert them to WAV/MP3 files? Or is there an application to install on the iPod to play them natively?

[watkinzez]

:]

I've been meaning to ask someone how that is done.
How is that done?

[atmuh]

it wont break your ipod and you can boot either into that custom firmware or apple's regular firmware
i like it

[watkinzez]

An hour's install later, my iPod is now awesome.

:]

[area51999]

On my PSP I have about 69 songs.

[Thin Crust]

I've finished listening to all the mixes of the games I've played. Mainly Final Fantasy and MGS and Chrono Trigger. Heck, I haven't listened to more than 10 Chrono Trigger mixes. Now I am looking for good songs to put on my mp3 that I haven't noticed yet. I tried looking at the reviews page (http://ocremix.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=14&daysprune=60&order=desc&sort=replycount) and thought that if something has many reviews, then it must be good. When I listened to Zelda, the Music of my Groin (http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR00209/) I saw that I was mistaken. So, what good songs do you listen to here on OCR?

Solution:

1. Download all via torrent.
2. Browse through collection, finding both well known quality songs and underappreciated gems.

The only true way.

I never tried the torrent, and it's giving me trouble. Is there an instruction page somewhere? I couldn't find it for some reason.

I triple boot my iPod Nano with Rockbox, iPod Linux, and the Apple firmware. It's good stuff, because I can play Pokémon Pinball on my iPod in class now, and they all just think I'm fucking with my iPod.

[EdgeCrusher]

What the? I didn't want this in Gen Disc.

[Darth Lime]

I have 764 songs on my 4gb, 4th generation iPod mini. My iPod sucks though. Battery is on crack, says its dead when theres at least 3 more hours left on it. I blame faulty programing.

[The Coop]

What the? I didn't want this in Gen Disc.

Same thing happened with my Freeware thread. I guess we're just not making off topic enough topics.

[Mouser X]

On my Toshiba Gigabeat (which runs Rockbox [Rockbox is AWESEOME!]), I have about 52,000 songs (rounded down. There's stuff in there that's not all music [album art, playlists, NFO, SVN, stuff like that]). I've got the really big C64 SID collection thing on there, tons of SPCs, the 2a03 (NSFs) collection, as well as commercial game NSFs, and plenty of MP3s (there's some FLAC and ADX (a fairly-large-in-file-size format, compared to MP3) in there as well). As I recall, the SID collection thing by itself is over 40,000 files. Excluding that, I'd be surprised if I had less than 10,000 on there. My Gigabeat has a 40 GB drive, and I've got about 1.5 GB left free on it.

On my PC though, I had 55,000+ (in Winamp), last time I checked. And I know for a fact that I've gotten *at least* 10,000 more since then. And that's not including the C64 SID collection... Including that, I've probably got 100,000+ songs on my PC... Wow... That's a surprise to even me...

As for total play time, I have no idea. Probably 1 or 2 months. Possibly more, with that SID collection. At the rate I'm going, I'll probably never actually listen to all those songs... Mouser X out.

[I-n-j-i-n]

I rarely even listen to music except for classical music and the occasionally funny country or rap music now.

Almost all of them comedy skits, voice actor bloopers, shock jock radio shows and podcasts.

Maybe 1000 files on my MP3 player tops.

...what's that smell?

Like others have said, go download a Bit Torrent client. I like Azureus, myself. Just Google the terms and their web pages'll come up. After you have a client, go to the front page and click a torrent to download a small torrent file. Open the small torrent file and the client should begin your transfer process. Not too hard, right? I did this (finally) some 2 months ago and found a lot of great ReMixes this way. Granted, I didn't download everything. I stuck to ReMixers I like or games that I could identify with, so only about 50% of the mixes, really.

As for my collection? I've read some of the posts in this thread, and man... months worth of music? Get real, man. I love music more than the average Joe, but I'm also friends with a hardcore music junkie so I know what a lot of "you" guys must be like.

Personally, I'd like to think that I aquire new music at a rate that allows me to listen to everything I own and still out-listen most people. I'm not out to listen to everything; I'm not going to go broke over music.

Anyway, 3,050 songs, 8.5 days, mostly mp3 or ACC files with a small peppering of high-definition music files. Granted, you're not going to see much in the way of 70s rock on my computer because of the SATURATION anyone can find on their radio dial. I do go for the older bands that I like a lot, though, like ZZ Top, Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix, the Beatles, Beach Boys, Dick Dale, Bill Withers, Astrud Gilberto, Lynyrd Skynyrd, CAN, Herbie Hancock, Marvin Gaye, Al Green, T. Rex, Van Morrison, Vince Guaraldi Trio, Thelonious Monk, John Coltrane, Charlie Parker, etc.

[Lord.Roderick.i]

1656, 5 days, 7.25Gb
:D
SO far I think its a lot of music, but l'm sure i can get more.

[vindkast]

1400-- but 900 that I might listen to (3+star), and 300 that I usually listen to (4+star).

That's really a more interesting question imo-- how many do you regularly listen to? Or do you just put it on all 3000 and press play?

(The 500 I won't listen to are mostly "bad" songs like OLR/BEER/EAR/FEAR, or WIPs, or source tunes, etc. They're on my ipod because I still have room (20g free out of 30g), so I don't bother with deleting them.)

[Hale-Bopp]

2099 songs, 4.7 days, 7.45 GB are all on my 30GB iPod.

I still have yet to add a good number of rock albums and movie soundtracks.

[DemanusFlint]

13953 songs, right at thirty-nine-and-a-half days. I'm so glad I got a new eighty gig! If I trimmed down to what I actually care about listening, to, I could maybe get it down to below thirteen thousand... but that's just not happening.

[The Derrit]

I've got 3359 songs, which is 8.6 days or 14.94 GB. Its a good amount considering I started my collection two years ago, but its bound to get much larger soon. Most of what I listen to now is stuff from OCR or just gaming soundtracks, along with some drum and bass in there.

[sonicbhoc]

Well....

915 Tracks
258 Artists
86 Albums
32 Genres
2 days 20 hours Play-time

It's teeny. I don't have hard drive space to get any more music, and my favorite Touhou remix site died a horrible and painful death at the hands of American currency. <_<

When I get a new hard drive it's time to start downloading more ocremixes. I don't have enough.

[Hawkwing]

4867 songs
13 days 11 minutes and 4 seconds

[Fire in the Hole]

1818 @ about 5 days, trimmed from 3286 @ 9.5 days on my hard drive

but I'm currently torrenting about 3.5GB more Stuff I'll Actually Listen To which will bring it up to over 2500 @ 8 days, with another 3.5GB still free.

[Subz1987]

1,245 songs.

277 of them are from OC ReMix

good god how could you dislike that song

[EdgeCrusher]

Updated my collection.

8014 songs. 21.6 days. 42.49 gigs.

None of which are OC remixes though, as I am too lazy right now to make a genre just for that. I do have the complete DoD on there though.

[Aninymouse]

4867 songs
13 days 11 minutes and 4 seconds

Impossible, my good man, unless you have shitloads of hour+ tracks, etc.

[Czar Diego]

Impossible, my good man, unless you have shitloads of hour+ tracks, etc.

Actually, it averages out to about 3.8 minutes per track.

I've got about 1500 tracks here, but I'm on dial up.

[Lacour]

3,765 i would have more but i've had viruses which has made me start over on several occasions

[M@DM@X]

On Harddrive: 5042 Songs, 24.40 Gigs, 14.2 Days
On iPod mini: 1008 Songs, 3.68 Gigs, 2.5 Days

[ProFiction]

I'm using my 30GB iPod Video more like a shuffle at the moment. No videos, and just random music that I can play for everyone on my design team. But I've got 13702 songs in my iTunes. That includes zero spcs, nsfs or anything of that sort. Just mp3s. 62.58GB

[SonikBoom]

I have 750 (not including OCR, which is about 100) songs on my 30GB iPod Video. (Which runs RockBox. I swear, that Bubbles game is one of the most addicting games I've played.)

Woot. 1st post!

Oh yeah. -_- I've never actually played Bust A move, so all I got is Bubbles.

[Captian of lost pirates]

i just have an ipod mini. a little one gigger. but ive got like 3000 songs on my hard drive.

[Txai]

I rarely listen to music in my tracker. It is more useful as a quick-backup-machine, saving cool pictures and so on; which is always good.

[Fridge]

I have about 100 songs and a bunch of podcasts on my 1 gigger... I rotate songs 3-4 times a week, since I couldn't afford to get a player that would hold my entire collection (http://music.fridgesworld.com/fullplaylist.html) (there also aren't many (any?) players out there that can handle >90 gigs...).

[Escariot]

About 78 songs

[Barnsalot]

I only have about twenty or thirty songs on my nano, actually. The rest of the space is taken up by Pimsleur language audio and audio-books.

[The Coop]

http://www.geocities.com/arforfaborb/thecoop/Images/altbwizard.gif

[Darth Lime]

I have a 90gb harddrive, and its mostly filled with music.

5112 songs total, covering practically every genre.

[Dark Chocobo]

I've got 163, but at full capacity it held around 230 or so. Some of it's OCR, most of it is just random stuff.

[Bahamut]

I have a 90gb harddrive, and its mostly filled with music.

5112 songs total, covering practically every genre.

Question was mp3 player, not collection :-? . When I had ~400 GB of music, I was never so arrogant to assume I covered practically every genre either.

[ProjectSpam]

4600ish songs on my iPod.

[The UnMod OutKast]

Lets just say, if I walked around with my mp3 player on all day and night, I still wouldn't be close to hearing all of the songs that are on it.

[BlueMage]

Just under 2000 at last check. Predominantly VG now, as prior to that, my tastes were, shall we say, lacking.

[Darth Lime]

Question was mp3 player, not collection :-? . When I had ~400 GB of music, I was never so arrogant to assume I covered practically every genre either. Sorry, I didn't mean to sound arrogant.

On my 1gb memory card player, I have around 120.

[Drack]

I don't have an iPod or similar. I don't want moving parts (hard drive) in an mp3 player, so I go with flash. I have 2 flash-based devices with mp3 playing capabilities (cell phone - LG VX8600, and homebrew-capable Nintendo DS) both of which use microSD.

So I have about 1 gig worth for those.

[Shadow Wolf]

Last I checked my 20 gig iPod, I have about 4300 songs on it.

[Lord.Roderick.i]

Yeah I made the same mistake I while back by showing the collection total, but my 2gb iPod ( I want a new one :( ) has 272 songs and its full. Most of the songs are 7+ mins long
and 75% of the music is trance, electronic and dance, then 20% is OCREmix and the other 5% is Rock :P, I just cant remove it the songs are too good :D

[Malaki-LEGEND.sys]

I think I have somewhere around 200+ songs on mine. It's a 1 gig Creative Zen Nano Plus, so it can't hold an uber-godly amount, but it gets the job done since I can just convert 'em to .wma.

I think I have close to 6 gigs of music, and that's about it. I listen to each and every track though, and I can listen to the same song over and over without ever getting tired of it.

[A-RoN]

With every mp3 converted to 128 kbp (for listening purposes only as changing mp3 encoding's a bad idea), I'm able to fit 130 songs if each are 5 minutes or less.

Yup, 256 MB with an extra data card. I need to upgrade... :(
