I cheated just a bit, as I have 24k tracks and change -- rounded up! It is kind of silly, isn't it? I have something like 60 days of non-stop continuous music to play. I know there are many whole albums that I have never listened to, at least in SB mode, and never will. I am always on the lookout for new music, or old music to fill holes in my collection, and often buy used CDs which get ripped and forgotten. Also many downloads, perhaps more lossy but increasingly lossless. Admission -- I have acquired a few things via Torrent, but these represent a tiny proportion of the total, and then almost always things I couldn't otherwise find. I think it's in the nature of collecting. We want things for the having of them, perhaps not always for the direct enjoyment. I also collect antique botanical prints (the hand-coloured kind ripped out of 19th Century publications), and once examined and scanned and posted on my website, they live unseen in binders inside a file cabinet. Protected from the light, you know. Ron Transporter, two Booms in service (plus one spare), one Duet in service (plus one spare), one Touch currently not in use but insurance against the Transporter croaking. May use the Touch to replace the Duet, but it's used so seldom I'll probably keep the Touch in the box pending a greater need. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ RonM's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17029 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95676 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
