How much electronic music do you have?, page 2


haha, cheers back with a glass of nice Chinese yellow wine!



Just curious... how many old school 'music hoarders' are still out there amongst us?


I'm hoarding till the very end :)

- Nice to see the old veterans are still here

Last time I checked it was about 3.5 TB, spread over 4 (ageing) USB HDDs. Used to be a lot more, but I cleared out a stack of old shite to make some room recently. A fair bit of cheesy Trance went in the bin!
No idea now many house/techno/trance CDs I have bought over the years, but there are several hundred packed into cardboard boxes still waiting to be ripped to mp3...!

5 years on... the last slot has been filled just recently.. tips hat to Richg for all the recent stuff you ripped and uploaded to me...upto checking I have 3.5T on the NAS, probably another few hundred gig knocking around that has not been copied across, I'd say I covered for a while..


Bahahaaaa , a lot
Good to hear you guys still have a lot of good stuff on hand.

I have 184 GB of electronic music . :)



I'm still collecting and hoarding all I can to this very day!
Whilst it seems that most sets are immortalised on Soundcloud/Mixcloud/YouTube/etc...
I noticed that at some point, stuff just gets taken down/deleted for whatever reason.
Even if it didn't infringe on someone's copyright.
So that classic set you used to love to stream a dozen times a year for a decade or more is suddenly unavailable.
Keep on hoarding people

120 GB back then was a mountain. 120 GB these days is two or three files downloaded, how things evolve. Little did we know these forums are a treasure chest of fun from the past. Argh, memories back from the prehistoric times!



Nowadays we deal in TB!
Crazy really... even though bitrates are not increasing (dropping if anything thanks to Opus and AAC) the amount of sets that get posted/released by everyone and his dog has exploded. Especially since the lockdown days...
