Yeah, but I'll need to add a bit more storage... I barely have room for what I have now.

i would like a place i can store any MP3s i have (4000 or so) that i can access anywhere.

Now that I've got about 1/3 of my music collection (I'm looking at weeks' worth of work to get everything cleaned up and replace missing files) in iTunes, with proper tagging, I've moved the bulk of my music collection to a "unprocessed_mp3s" directory, and changed iTunes to point to my original mp3 location (d:\mp3s) and started keeping my processed and tagged mp3s there. That way, all my network shares are untouched (just different music files) and they'll display better on my iPhone, Nano, or MythBox. Plus, I can still fire up Winamp and drag artist and/or album directories into the playlist and start listening.

Sadly, that's been my entertainment lately when I've got a little bit of me-time.

Doing this though has reminded me of a lot of music I haven't listened to in awhile, so I've been going through and re-discovering some old faves.

Like:
Mogwai ("Come on Die Young", "My Father My King", "Young Team", and "Rock Action")
Godspeed You! Black Emperor (not even gonna bother listing their albums... this sentence is shorter than most of their titles)
Marilyn Manson & The Spooky Kids (oldskool stuff)
Jamiroquai
Eon
The Future Sound of London
Orbital
Makai


Dear Apple, iTunes sucks. Please fix it one day. kthxbai.

I have a Creative Zen, and it comes with a cd (which is really an installation CD) but you can also use it for organization of downloaded music. I haven't yet because right now all my music is going into my Windows Player, and I don't have time. But when I looked the Creative program over, it looked pretty easy to use. I will let you know when I FINALLY get to put stuff on it.
But anyway, here's the playlist for me currently.
The Shins - Chutes Too Narrow
Mutemath
Three Days Grace
The Cure (yeah yeah, curb the laughter)
KoRn
Goo Goo Dolls
NIN

Winamp has a library feature (if you install it with it) that can do that -- it read everything and randomly play stuff. I doubt it'll load up your player though. Although, you can probably use Perl or PHP to read all your files in, including filesize, and generate a random playlist (just a standard M3U file) for you that you can then push to your player.

And yeah, as for the current playlist:
Rasputina (entire discography)
UNKLE - War Stories and Psyence Fiction
NIN - Year Zero, The Fragile, Downward Spiral, With Teeth
Within Temptation - Enter and The Heart of Everything
Silversun Pickups - Carnavas and Pikul
Coal Chamber - Chamber Music and self-titled album

I do it the old fashiond way, with folders in a dir, I was useing an application called Media monkey for a while, which was nice for id3 tags and organization, but since Jana uses iTunes, I think it fucked something up. Since I refuse (at this point) to own anything mac,I am useing a 1 gig sansa as my player and I love it (its expandable too).

Heres something I need, see if any of you have a solution for this... I want an appy that will look at my master music direcory, catalog it, and randomize it based on my player size and load my player with random songs, which I can then set my player on random and not get board. I think iTunes does something like this, but umm yeah, I want something else that does it.

Right now (to stay on topic) I have loaded..
Massive Attack ->Mezzanine
Portishead -> portishead
nin -> Year Zero
Tool -> 10,000 Days
History of punk -> 2 cd set
Shiny Toy Guns -> We Are Pilots V3
Plain Whit T's -> All that we Needed

Oh, I gotta warn you though -- that program crashes if you do anything while it's doing its initial processing. If you try to drag a song around while it's still figuring out the other songs, it usually crashes. Other than that, it's been stable for me just fine.

Also, you might want to go to Files > Options > Audio Fingerprinting > Automatically analyze all new files -- this will make it start sorting things right away.

Thanks for the MusicBrainz thingy....i organize the EXACT same way as you. But when i burn to MP3 and play it in my car its all fucked up cause of the missing ID3 shit. Im still gonna organize the same way thoSmile

VIVA LA WINAMP!

How do you guys organize your MP3s?

For years, I've just kept a directory called "MP3s" and maintained subdirectories that corresponded to artists, and subdirectories inside that with album titles. I always preferred for the filenames to start with the track number so that they would be listed in order because the filenames were in asciibetical order.

But since I've been using a Nano and now an iPhone, I'm forced to use this piece of crap iTunes. I hates it. It sucks. It will never be as cool as Winamp.

Anyway, one thing I'm forced to do now is to pay attention to the ID3 tags in the MP3 files. I've been using a program called MusicBrainz Picard to organize my files (it's actually a really sweet program -- it reads samples of the mp3, finds the artist and albums, and tries to force it into what it has listed... and lets you manually drag the songs into the correct albums). It standardizes my tags, and lets me drag my shit into iTunes so that I don't have to organize them there.

What are you guys using?

I hope Mos Defs new album is better than his last one. Not that the last one was bad but alot different than what was expected. He needs to get back to MC'n.

I downloaded Gomez-How We Operate from iTunes. Pretty good album, but I am a little disappointed that Apple's downloads only run 128 bit rate. Anyone know of a music service that does better?

Both of System of the Downs latest albums Mezmerize and Hypnotize are pretty cool. I think Mezmerize is my fave of the two though. They were supposed to be a double CD but they released them 6 months apart from each other.

Whoa.....Knock's reading my thoughts......
I'm poor, have no ipod but I've been listening to:
Michael Buble'
KoRn (mostly their latest but being as how they're my favorite band, anything by them is great.)
Rascall Flatts (there ya go Del, another country music fan)
Johnny Cash
Evanescence (spellling, sorry)
Victor Vito (eye roller, ok if you guys REALLY wanna hear it, download Laurie Berkner. It's kids songs)
All American Rejects
Breaking Benjamin
BTW--Have any of you guys heard the new System of a Down? Pooh and I heard a song (too bad I can't remember the title) and thought it was pretty sweet so I'll prolley have him get to work downloading that one, but if you guys have it lemme know your opinion. Smile

I have been listening to Flyleaf for a bit, it was a great find. I agree w/Q

I am listening to Rob Zombie/Educated Horses, different from his other stuff, this album has really grown on me.
Sneaker Pimps
Uberzone
Korn
Shinedown
Audioslave

I agree I have always known I like the old stuff, like Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, basically the Highway men... Kenny Rogers etc... this new CRAP is just that.

Hey, I hear the new Green Day album is good. You should pick it up...

here's some suggestions based on those bands...
Mogwai (kinda fuzzed-out garage band)
Alice in Chains (at least "Dirt")
Flyleaf (like a cool Avril Lavign, but not a poser)
Otep (she scares Marylin Manson, if that tells you anything. might be darker than what you want)
Cake
Coal Chamber (nu metal)
Jamiroquai (kinda cyber-phunk, chicks dig it cuz it's danceable)
N.E.R.D. (nerdy hip-hop)

I made some MP3 CDs awhile back, and I'm in need of some new material. I'd like some suggestions for some good acoustic stuff, and maybe some new bands out there that you guys have found to really like. I haven't listened to the new rock station for awhile now, so I'm a little behind.

Some stuff I grew up with and like
Green Day
Pearl Jam
STP
RATM
Weezer
Rancid
Cranberries
....Well you know. Typical stuff.
