It is supprising how many CD's you can get on, also I was supprised how many I have. But I love listening to my music whilst using to my PC and I have some a 2 . 1 Microlab speakers which are reasonable to produce the sound, and as my PC room is very small,a broom cupboard, more than adiquite (oops spelt that wrong)

Goor blimey VR that is a hell of a lot music, what sort of music you enjoy or are you like me and enjoy everything from classical to rock and most things inbeteween

 

[EvanDavis]

Not far behind and only about halfway getting everything on to my NAS.

 

[V_R]

That is all my music, its all at least 320 and some FLAC. There is also a lot of 'her' music too, Taylor Swift etc.

I run a Plex server on my PC so we can stream the music around the house.

As for Bootnecks question, its all sorts! From Dance, Trance, rock and metal.

Braggin' time is it?

Here's mp3 files:

And FLAC:

FBS is cheating ... he's the official BBC music archiver ... I still use DVDs.

 

[V_R]

Fooking hell Flops!

That must be one hell of a collection.

 

[floppybootstomp]

Heehee

It did take me a year on and off to convert all the CD's; there's also vinyl conversions/recordings and a smaller percentage of other sources.

41 years of DJ-ing has that effect

Yesterday took delivery of PiL's new LP, a double slice of vinyl, loving it to bits.

Despite that sizeable library of digital files I mostly play vinyl now.

 

[bootneck02]

Which is your favorite musical decade and the most listened to tracks Mr MucksEther Digital or Vinyl?

 

[floppybootstomp]

In lieu of Sir Mucks responding I'd just like to say my favourite musical decades were the 60's and the 90's.

The sixties were original and magical and the 90's was almost something of a rebirth, particularly with dance music.

And the likes of Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden et al.

Worst decade ever, imo, has to be the eighties, all Big hair, Frankie, Wham and Eye Of The Tiger. The Final Countdown indeed

 

[bootneck02]

Yes I think mine was the 60's

 

[muckshifter]

anything 60's

I do still have a few Vinyl's stored in my sisters loft, she reminds me now-n-then, but I haven't really got the space or the dosh to buy a new dec' ... I'm a bit of a 'metal' fan ... AC/DC, Pink Floyd, Rainbow, Whitesnake, Ozzy, Runrig, Queen, TSO ... just to name a few.

 

[nivrip]

Definitely the 60s. Still have some old LPs but no deck to play them on.
