How big is you music collection? (2)

Hi,
Last week we had several friends visiting and as they know I was a DJ and have large library 120k+ we created playlist of tracks that I have never listened and rated 3+ stars to guess track name and artist, in case it misses it needs to sing along. It was fun and we laughed a lot.

They say music is food to the soul..My playlist currently holds about 1400 songs..i love Pop music so that makes up 90% of what i listen to. Classic songs from the 70s and 90s make get 10%. Main reason is because this genres of music have great lyrical content compared to what others have to offer..
My music is in form of Mp3 save for a few videos. I like it this way because i carry a headset with me all the time.
I have to ask though, people with much bigger playlists, say 6000+ songs, when do you ever get to listen to all this songs??

That's a great question!

I don't have a big collection, because I mainly listen to youtube and spotify and just buy albums, which I really love. So my collection is rather small.

I'm anal retentive, so all of my MP3s are properly tagged. Sadly, the ratings I'm a bit behind on, but I'm working on it. (The 4 & 5 stars are easy, and I use 2 stars for duplicates so they don't wind up on my phone. It's determining the averages from the slightly above and slightly below that takes more time IMO.)

My poll answer was just my music collection, which is over 9000 songs. (Not including duplicates or songs I rate 1 star.) But I also have a LOT of MP3s for audio stories (mostly Big Finish and some other radio plays and/or audiobooks.) That, apparently, is nearing 20,000 MP3s. Sheesh!

I didn't know actually. I've less than 1000 songs. I love listening to songs of any genre. But my favorite songs will be in Hindi and Punjabi language.Because of my mother tongue. Recently I listen to this raat digedi diljitdosanjh which is recently added to my list of songs. I also love listening to English songs.

I personally do not have a collection of music. I enjoy listening to all kinds of tunes from punk rock to dub step, but I utilize the free versions of Spotify and/or Pandora for my listening pleasure.

Hi,
Nice one.
As a reference I passed to have more than 7500 Playlists in MMW

Can you please share your experience on MMW speed and hardware you use for MMW?

I'm currently focusing on downloading complete discographies of Artists, tagging them, then running them through a series of scripts I wrote to determine if its a better quality version of something I already have or something not in my collection.

This program can handle it.

That's a huge collection. I just finished syncing the music on my NAS to the library on my old Xbox, and it tells me I have 2,923 Albums or about 1/20th of the size of yours

Edit: Seems I spoke too soon. There are a few seriously large collections listed, the further back you go.
