Around the holidays, I usually have some time to rip digital music files from my CDs. Music went digital around 2000 and I'm still not done ripping my CDs let alone vinyl. I almost have 20K songs, probably 30K and change if I rip everything. How many do you have? Not sure how accurate the chart below is, but something to go by.

How many do you have available in the cloud? I have about 8K in Google Music. Didn't opt for iTunes Match as I use a subscription service.

I still go to hard copy CDs when I want to listen to something seriously. I can do youtube, but I don't really grok the whole files thing. :surrender:

iacas has ~13K and uses ~105 GB

I have ~20K and use ~125 GB, many of my songs are encoded at a low bit rate as I ripped most of my CDs way before FLAC or 320kbps was available.

You must be using a really high bit rate or an encoding that uses a lot of space?

320k or FLAC would take up the space without a problem, especially if yours were encoded at 128k or lower. I cannot stand 128k mp3s, I always opt for higher resolution which is why I love buying albums from Bandcamp when I can.

I honestly don't know how big my collection is. It's spread out over two computers plus a removable drive, so I'll have to dig around a bit :-)

I ripped all my CDs to ALAC and also have quite a few 24-bit/192kHz files, mostly needle drops of vinyl albums.

I use MOG, but am leaning towards streaming my own library via Google.

Yeah, I see now. I ripped a CD using ALAC and it's about 3x the size of a 320 mp3 rip.

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Range again today. A few freezers and a few smoothies. If I add a little speed I swing further arms go deeper and lower and more across again. Really like where this freezer got to on backswing:   This is a smoothie (ish). Clubhead tracks up the hands nicely but the things go a bit wrong: At normal speed: Lastly one shortish pitch shot. Pitching some days I come out and can drop it on the flag. Other days it’s going sideways. Like missing right or left by 10 yards from 50 yards and nothing in between. I suspect it’s from the hands coming out and the cut across. If I release it on that line it’s going left. If I hold it off it’s going right and then it’s timing. When it’s off it’s off. Feels like if I can get that under control it will tighten up a lot.

      Have You Played Where a PGA, Champions, or LPGA Event Has Been Played?

      By Elmer · Posted

      Disney's Lake Buena Vista Golf Course. Which I believe used to host a LPGA tournament. Fantastic course, compared to what I typically play. So fantastic I carded a 115! in my defense it was 90 degrees by 9 am in late July. Not to mention whatever grass they had around the green was absolutely foreign to me, I could not get my wedge through it. The entire grass came up like it was a piece of shag carpet. Suffice to say my short game was a mess. but good times!

      The most important thing in my mind was Akshay responding all day Sunday. He was 2 over and five back at the turn and just get grinding. bridies galore and then on the fifth he bogeyed and on the sixth he played it far enough right that if he missed a little left it would be right by the hole. It was and he made the eagle. Stayed in it, kept playing great and kept getting pars. He very much deserved the win.
