- admirabumblebee, on 10/12/2007, -20/+231This is not accurate. My iTunes library has over 350,000 songs. Im not ***** you. About 2/3 of it it is legit, and a big portion of that is from free sampler cd's i used to (and still do) collect. I have spent my entire life going through music magnet schools and programs, I have amassed a massive collection of music of all kinds vinyl, cd, 8-track, cassette, mp3, ogg, whatever.
I guess it doesn't matter, following is probably a list of people crying "*****"... but I assure you this is the truth. - zdiddy85, on 10/12/2007, -8/+209wait...there are 200,000 songs worth buying/downloading?
- Markpdotcom, on 10/12/2007, -13/+155Here is a screen shot of my huge collection. As you see, when Itunes gets past a few TB of files, the info changes a little...

:) Safe for work! - Th0Rr, on 10/12/2007, -2/+125@Admirabumblebee
lets see a screen shot of your stats - orbanj, on 10/12/2007, -6/+124his e-penis must be huge
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -10/+126Only 200,000 tracks?
BWAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA..... NOOB!!!!!!! - Glenn, on 10/12/2007, -2/+111As far as I know, Will's collection is 100% legit. His job revolves around collecting, listening to, and reviewing music for various newspapers and magazines in the New York area.
- Roger, on 10/12/2007, -0/+104Maybe largest LEGAL iTunes collection...
- AeroZeppelin, on 10/12/2007, -1/+98porno doesn't count either
- idonthack, on 10/12/2007, -3/+84...well? We're waiting.
*warms up FTP client* - Pepper, on 10/12/2007, -2/+82Thats one hell of alot of money spent (or not ;-)) on music o.0
- MrWhipplemen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+80his stat says 809 days of music
If he started right now it wouldn't end until July 5 2009 - flamingmb, on 10/12/2007, -2/+78my itunes just had its self esteem lowered......
- adidos, on 10/12/2007, -1/+72@Admirabumblebee
Do you really have like 1.5TB of music? That's like 3 years worth of music (24/7 with no repeats)... - tehtopher, on 10/12/2007, -0/+67That explains a lot.
- kodachrome22, on 10/12/2007, -1/+62Lowest. Bitrate. Ever. (especially for someone who listens to music for a living)
849 GB * 1024 MB/GB * 1024 KB/MB * 8 Kb/KB = 7121928192 KB
809 days * 24 hours/day * 60 min/hour * 60 sec/min = 69897600 sec
Average bitrate = 101.89 kbps - Paal, on 10/12/2007, -5/+53In other words...
THE MAN LEAST CONCERNED ABOUT FIDELITY ON THE PLANET - 89vision, on 10/12/2007, -1/+44I wonder how many out of the 200,000 this guy has actually listened to.
- gungaroo22, on 10/12/2007, -2/+44Don't parade around your mediocre ePenis. No one cares about the size of your music library.
Most people lie about their size, anyways. - flamingmb, on 10/12/2007, -1/+43tv shows dont count.
- bedrock, on 10/12/2007, -4/+43Pfft... that's nothing. I have over 200,000 remixes of "SexyBack".
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+40I could rattle off 4-5 ftp servers that put him to shame.
- artofwar420, on 10/12/2007, -14/+49OMG HOW IS GONNA LISTEN TO ALL HIS MUSIC!!!?? IT'S NOT POSSIBLE!!!
- Cwo655321, on 10/12/2007, -8/+40what about Steve Jobs? I believe his collection is much larger.
- Satanael, on 10/12/2007, -1/+33Several music stores upload every new CD they get into their iTunes library and use it for background music in the store as well as allowing customers to request a song to hear to determine if they like that band or not. This must be inaccurate.
- Girardin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+31No one said it did.
- idonthack, on 10/12/2007, -1/+30Is there an echo in here?
- TheIguana, on 10/12/2007, -3/+31Great, makes my 5000 song collection seem inadequate. I guess this is the time for a size doesn't matter joke.
- Cwo655321, on 10/12/2007, -0/+28gotta imagine he writes all of it off as a business expense.
- jofer, on 10/12/2007, -3/+28Last I checked, Amarok doesn't run on windows, and foobar2000 doesn't run on anything but windows.... So why are we arguing?
That having been said, foobar rocks! ;) - JoshuaH, on 10/12/2007, -2/+25Am I the only one who noticed spelling mistakes in this article?
rigirous - rigorous
schudule - schedule
I'm not saying I'm the best speller in the world...Just thought I would point it out. - kcpwnsgman, on 10/12/2007, -11/+33dang, and I thought I had a lot with ~5000 songs :P
- TheCheeks, on 10/12/2007, -1/+23medal.
- amphoterous, on 10/12/2007, -1/+211.2 TB - Porno - TV_Shows = -TV_Shows
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+19Music reviewers get it for free.
- OneManArmy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+19"As a result, when I am working with the full 800 GB library, it is painfully slow, getting around the library, doing searches, and editing info on individual tracks or whole albums just takes forever!"
With an _XML_ file of 259 MB, that explains a lot. A proper database is needed when things become that large. - DanMcScience, on 10/12/2007, -2/+20Hmmm. My 21 000 songs sounds to pitiful all of the sudden. You took away my second last point of pride! Now all I have left is my homemade tron suit...
- Agret, on 10/12/2007, -1/+18I shall PM you in 20 years when holographic storage cubes are avaliable...oh make that 23 years, when digg adds a pm system.
- Xorp, on 10/12/2007, -14/+31Using the THE worst app for large collections... good job.
Foobar2000 to the rescue! - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+16You think he bought 200,000 tracks off of iTunes.
That's hilarious. - imdeanlabouty, on 10/12/2007, -2/+18http://www.duggmirror.com
- jull1234, on 10/12/2007, -0/+14probably guarantees that there's something of interest in there. Somewhere.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -10/+22he should sell it half off
- Elamen, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13Pics or it didn't happen.
- zephc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12200K songs, but he only listens to his Motley Crue albums.
- idonthack, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12It doesn't say he obtained it all in a year.
He's most likely built it up over a decade or so, maybe two. Five years at the least.
He probably just listened to each song once. - ClunkClunk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11If you actually RTFM, it appears that the overwhelming majority of his library is ripped from CD.
- chicken101, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13This makes my music collection look like a joke. 2020 tracks....7 days play time.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11Ummmm... as a former Apple employee I can tell you: unless you're talking Xsan (TBs) then you ain't got nothin'...
