I am in the middle of adding about 200 CDs to my itunes collection - I had ripped them years before when I got my first MP3 player, but I ripped them to WMA files at the time So over the past week I have been ripping my CDs to my iTunes library and at the same time redoing all the album artwork and tagging for my collection (nearly 57 days of music to listen to). It has taken me a great many days to get it to this point and I am wondering if anyone here dedicates themselves to the maintenance of their music collection?
I really am only dedicated to make sure the song has the correct song name/artist name, but I'm a bit lazy to make sure the album is labeled correctly and make sure that it has album artwork. I do that for my gf's music collection, since that's how she likes it, plus she doesn't have as much music as me. I just wish more of my music automatically came up with the song names/albums/artwork when I rip it. Most of the time it comes up as Track 1/2/3, and so on.
I don't have a massive music collection, but what I do have is very well organised with all the correct info and album covers. I think sometimes I actually spend more time organising my music than actually listening to it .
This is the first I've heard of Spotify? What exactly is it - do you just pay a monthly fee for all music or do you still have to buy albums/tracks individually?
its a online streaming music company. you rent to listen to there catalog. im not sure if you can listen to music away from a internet or not tho.
Interesting, but I think I still prefer having my own catalog (I have lots of rare albums that I've imported from vinyl that I doubt would be in the catalog). Still I am very interested in this concept for online music distribution.
