How do you get *10 GB's* of MP3's? Doesnt that take *years* to download?
Or maybe you're running DSL/Cable/ISDN/whatever?

--Tobias, who only has about 300 MB of MP3's... Then again, the iBook
harddrive isn't big...

Ouch...

I'm similar...hasn't crashed yet.

4-5GB of MP3s on a FAT32, Win2k on a PII400 with 256mb RAM.  Better do some
backing up....

Well, I had my CPU overclocked from 66MHz on the bus to 83 so it's all
my bad I guess..

(Hopefully I won't have to) feel your frustration. :\

LOL! Well, I can get a hold of 'em again but all the work in getting
them into the right folders etc. is gone :(

(...) You can always encode the MP3's from your own CD's. You'd need somewhere like 80 CDs to get 10 GB og .mp3-files, though. But that number depends heavily on the bitrate you choose when encoding, as well as the running lenght of your CDs! (...) (24 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Download? For most of the MP3s that I want, that would be illegal. So instead I rip my own -- now I can stream MP3s to work from home without people stealing my CDs any more. :) Not to mention how much easier it is to create playlists... Chris (...)
