Light at the End of the Tunnel

iTunes currently reports that I've ripped 360 CDs to mp3@192kbps. The database contains 4566 songs from 740 artists and takes up 26.06Gb of disk space and if played end to end would last for 13.4 days.

This is certainly a "chore" that I never wish to have to do again. There's just a few CDs to round up and that part of the task will be complete. I then need to wade through my hard drives and add the various mp3s I've downloaded over the years (about 15Gb worth). That's a lot of Pink Floyd RoIOs :)

iTunes is setup to use Gracenote for track info and with only one exception it has correctly found and identified every CD in our collection. The one it missed was an internal sampler disk from my days working at one of the UK's leading Hi-Fi manufacturers. Very impressed.
