If I add almost all my mp3s to a single playlist (a few I leave out because I want to keep them for some reason, but don't generally want to hear in rotation), I have 7.8 solid days of music. An awful lot of it is legit, too (for example, I ripped a bunch off the like 30 Cure discs I have). I have no idea how this compares to anyone else out there. How many hours have you got?

If I try to suck in all the MP3s on my MP3 server into a single playlist, I'm afraid I may crash my machine by overrunning its memory. Instead, I just SSHed into the server and did a "df" on that partition - there's 54GB of MP3s on there.

A rough estimate is that 1 minute runs about 1.1 MB. That means I've got about 49,091 minutes, or 818 hours, or about 34 days of music.

I'm not even going to speculate about how much of it is legit.
