0 Vice Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 From my iTunes: My storage system is basically a server in my house that I built it has two RAID5 arrays and I store my files on that. Then I run iTunes on my other computers to listen to the music via the built in Home Sharing feature (Great app!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 +virtorio MVC Posted February 11, 2011 MVC Share Posted February 11, 2011 68 GB apparently 24 GB is which is podcasts 5792 tracks I let iTunes manage it, and back it up with Time Machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 team_NOOB Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Well this question is kinda redundant. Someone who only gets their albums in say for example, FLAC form will have used more disk space as opposed to someone who gets their albums in 256 - 320kbps quality. So your question should be, how many songs do you have in your music library? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Subject Delta Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 My music library (FYI I use WMP12 and Media Centre, not iTunes) is: 3,344 Items (233 hours), 26.7GB Backup practises: Don't really have enough space to back it up, I have my multimedia spanned across several drives so that if one fails, I only lose some of it.

0 Bugballou Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Don't do mp3 as a rule, usually use audiograbber or EAC to rip my CD's, and use audacity for online audio. Also keep a backup of files, ever format the wrong external drive, or have one fail? :whistle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
