Coincidentally, there are 4,501 things on the list we keep adding to. So, it just may be the perfect number =)
- Micah Wittman
Jointly Kevin and I have around 20,000... no idea what is a lot, little or average though.
- Rachel Lea Fox
Well... So far it looks like i'm on the low end... Unless the people with less than 4501 start speaking up.
- Ross Miller
Ross, iTunes on my machine has maybe a dozen tunes. That's right, 12. Podcasts on the other hand </sad-but-true>
- Micah Wittman
I guess that depends on how much you spent to get those songs in your library. If you didn't spend a penny, then it's a lot, and you shouldn't even say that publicly. Anyhow, I think that Ton who has 80 000 tracks doesn't listen to music the same way Ross does. If you're picky at what you listen, or if you only listen to carefully prepared playlists, then 80 000 would be too much to...

oh my frick what do you do with 80,000 songs. you must have like every song there is. i have 595 and that is over the course of 4 years. you must have been collecting those songs for a long time.

I have 4,510 songs, 15 days of playtime. Have a lot more TV shows and movies, though.

At the moment, I have between 10,000 and 11,000 tracks on my computer. I've still got about 300-400 CDs I have yet to digitize, though, so I expect the number to almost double if I ever finish.

iTunes Home Sharing is simply awesome. I'm using it right now to copy/sync all my music to my new laptop and it's working great. It's exactly how I've wanted iTunes to share all along.

How is this different from sharing the library the way it used to work? Or is this more useful for when you want to disconnect the network and still have access to all the music?
- Benjamin Golub
Benjamin: exactly. It works like the transfer purchases feature on iPods and iPhones: you don't have to be connected to the home network to play them, because the files are copied to your computer.
- Mark Trapp
Wait, you can finally use the songs you buy on more than one computer without having to jump through hoops? My boss would've loved this feature five years ago. Explaining DRM to him was not fun, he just wanted his $1 songs to be playable on all of his PCs.
- Daniel J. Pritchett
Ben, the main advantage is that you can set it to automatically sync the libraries so that a copy of new purchases is on both computers. I'm just using it to copy my whole library to a new computer.
- Ross Miller
So is it possible for me and my wife to share music, on each of our computers, bought on different accounts, before and after we have gotten married?
- Rasmus Lauridsen
Rasmus: I doubt it. This feature, and all the features in the iTunes/iPod/iPhone ecosystem, only allow one active account.
- Mark Trapp
and of files you haven't aquired via itunes?
- alphaxion
But you can activate more than one account in Itunes... I have mine + my wife's two accounts authorized. But yeah it's probably going to be another case of having to still do it manually
- Rasmus Lauridsen
Alphaxion, it just copies them over like any purchases from iTunes. When you open the home sharing center, there's a view to 'only see songs that are not on this computer'. You just select which songs you want to copy and hit import.
- Ross Miller
On a related note, something I've been wondering about recently is the best way to share a library between two Windows user accounts on the same machine. Seems silly to sync them when the files are on the same machine, but I'd like new purchases to appear automatically. Is that possible somehow?
- Tony Ruscoe
from iPhone
Tony, I think you can do that by changing the 'iTunes Media folder location' to be the same destination. Just choose which /Music/iTunes you want to use and set them both to that one. You can change the location from the Advanced tab in Preferences.
- Ross Miller
Thanks. I think I'll have to try that. I did wonder about doing that but wasn't sure whether that would just copy the files to the same folder, leaving the libraries out of sync though.

From wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...): Magic Tape is a brand within the Scotch Tape family of adhesive tapes made by 3M, sold in distinctive plaid packaging. Invented and introduced in 1961, it is the original matte finish tape. It appears frosty on the roll, yet is invisible on paper. The tape is made of PET film, not acetate, which would normally reflect light. This...
