everyone who has or once had over 1000 trance songs
tell me. Have you ever exepierenced a disorder called
hyper-active trance mp3 downloading. If so then you may have these symtoms of a full hard drive and very few recorded cd's left..to solve this cure
How many of you do what i do I guess once every 2 to 3 months. Actually sort the trance music you want and what you don't want. I just spent 3.5 hours sorting about 890 trance mp3 accumulated over a 4 month period to my liking in two folders called excess and trance. The excess folder I deleted because those are tunes I think suck or I never would listen to. And the trance is what I listen to often when I am on my comp. I do this because if I did not once every few months I would of had probably over 4,500 songs in a 6 month period. And I really don't like to burn that many songs in a row ..so how many TA's
load them into winamp and listen away untill you are done soritng.
While doing this I listen to each song about 5 seconds and by that know if I want it or not..Reason is I already know all the songs I have but relisten to make sure I want it or not.
PS is I had 890 songs that were who knows what and now I know I have 364 really great trance songs right at my finger tips!! and saved about 8.5 GB's

i've been in the same situation for the last 4 years now! LOL!
the only problem I have come across is that, once in a while i don't really listent to the song and delete it and than like a week later I hear it in someone's live set and it sounds damn good, and I have to smack my self on the head and search for that song again, that happens to about 10% of the songs that I delete!

ugh I got like 500 songs to sort, what I dont like I keep to get "ripe" (Usually progresisve stuff) so I will for some strange reason like in a few months time.
I only keep full vinyl rips of at least 128 kbps
and radio rips where there is no vinyl out yet

I burn all my old songs in MP3 format onto a CD, and fit between 80 and 100 songs per disc. I have about 55-60 mp3 discs that i have catalogued, and I type out what songs are on each disc, so that if i look for a file, i know were to get it.
