Continuing with CDs?

Autorip is a cool feature. I wish they'd make them 320 rips, though.

Seriously

you kids and your burning and your ripping...

Those space saving sleeves do work pretty well. I'm through about 700 out of a case of 1000 and it has opened up quite a bit of space on the shelves for other Cds. Mostly I have been putting them in the bag when I rip the CD as a uncompressed wav file into my library. I've been working on that for a couple of years whenever I feel like it and have probably have a aprox 1.7 tb uncompressed music ripped at this point. I'd figure that to be probably 2000-2500 CDs ripped and I probably got over 4000 at this point. It's pretty much pure lunacy, but I could not imagine having to keep all of this around in LPs. I only have a couple hundred vinyl records.

> a uncompressed wav

What about the metadata, though? Won't someone think of the metadata?!

I use abcde on Linux to rip to flac and ogg at the same time, flacs go into the archive, oggs onto the sansa.

All needs a massive reorg though.

I've been using dBpoweramp for a few years to rip my CDs which does apply an editable metadata on the files. That said, I don't really use a database reader for playback on my main music PC. I've been using Foobar2000 for quite a few years for playback, mostly as it's such a stripped down and efficient player and doesn't have all the bells and whistles. My music is in good shape organization wise and I keep a spreadsheet on it all, which is enough for me. I got a converter and a directory and will export wavs into MP3 every so often to put on thumb drives for external listening.

I'd perhaps ripped them as .aiff had I ever became a Mac person, but I have worked in IT with Windows for so long, I've never really crossed that line. Every time I price out a Powerbook or something, I go price out a comparable Windows laptop and I can't make the leap.

I carted off the giant floor-to-ceiling CD shelves I built in 2001 to Goodwill today. Made my choices awhile ago.

big fan of grabbing CDs at random from the world music section of the library, always end up with cool stuff.

Isn't it weird that in a near future most people may not own collections of music, movies and literature? They'll still listen, watch and read, but through subscriptions - there'll be no physical (maybe not even digital) collections to look at in their living rooms. Otoh there's only really been movie collections for what ~30 years or something. Personal/private music collections for ~100 years? Book collections must be the oldest, and perhaps the ones that'll last longest.

there may be another thread for this

Glad I've built up a substantial library of all three. I'll never trust downloads/streaming/subscriptions--whatever is given there can be taken away. Plus I'd imagine at least a quarter of what I listen to most isn't on any subscription service, probably a lot higher than that. Also besides the ethics, given that subscriptions/streaming don't seem to pay artists/producers a meaningful amount.

Really don't like the idea of people only having subscriptions. If you're a kid and you're parents won't pay for it, that would suck. Or people who love music but don't like the internet.

I just bought a physical copy of the Kehlani album #luddite

As long as there are physical CDs, I will be buying them. Books, too. DVDs and Blu-Rays, too, but in much smaller quantities 'cause I don't really care that much about movies - I see maybe five a year in theaters, if that, and maybe twice that many via Amazon or Hulu.

I've no doubt enthusiasts (and some people who grew up when blu-rays, cds, lps had value) will maintain collections - but I don't think coming generations are likely to

Apparently sales of eBooks have leveled off. Even my students tell me they look to them as escapes from the tyranny of the screen.

them = books

i'm ready to make a run for the border at a moment's notice.

You have two copies of Scream Bloody Gore! Good idea - in case anything happens to one, you have a spare. That album rules. Oh and you have two copies of South of Heaven too! Smart man.

I will always buy physical media, and will have a physical collection of music until the day I die, at which point it will probably all end up in a dumpster

noise, metal, old school hip hop ... and red house painters.

and Cranes!

what are the 2 with the same pattern/logo, one below Red House Painters just above bottom left, one in the next column over, between Eric B & Rakim "Let the Rhythm Hit 'Em" and Kool G Rap?

(this may an ignorant question, but hey)

I think that's Death

Maybe not.

― The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Saturday, 28 January 2017 16:30

Glad other people feel this way but I don't hear it often enough.

i'm reading more and more varied stuff since getting my kobo. and it's costing me less (being mostly public domain novels and amazon daily deals)

yeah, those are Death demos/live things. bootlegs.

(and you do get to keep ebooks that you buy (if you free them from the amazon ecosystem)) xp

I like my Kindle for magazines and longform reads. But beyond the cheaper cost and convenience, I've found that an e-book improves upon a paper book only when the latter is really heavy. It's also counter-productive to switch on a screen at 3am when you can't sleep.

CDs though? I wish I had all of these ripped to non-lossy and sold ten years ago.

while desperately looking for a decent cd storage solution, i came across this amazing thing on craigslist:

Diverse CD Collection ; 598 CDs
Many Rare & Imports
$10,000 Firm

Ranging from:
Experimental / Psychedelic / Avant Garde / Ambient / 20th Century Classical / Industrial / Rock / Jazz / Fusion / Alternative / Folk / Noise Rock / Punk

Recently Upgraded to Very Good Condition!!

This was originally a collection of 670 CDs (in alphabetical order), but due to a previous buyer and the collection sitting in an office waiting to be shipped, persons unknown must have removed 87 CDs from the collection. Impossible to tell which ones (since then 15 more CDs have been added). Some CDs are in still alphabetical order but some are mixed up. So some of it is a mix & match situation. The CDs are all in paper sleeves. The artwork inserts are boxed separately. As is. No Jewel Cases. See the list of the contents at the end of this ad.

The CDs have been upgraded to Very Good Condition (some even Mint). They have recently been inspected, cleaned and graded by an Expert of 40 years in the business.

Many of these CDs are Rare or are Imports, hard to get. Looking to sell to someone who understands what this is and can invest some time & TLC to get the collection back into shape. These CDs range from the $10. range up to $200. apiece in value!

Selling As Is / Sorry, No Returns.
Buyer can come out and visually inspect the contents if local.
Ebay calculates International Shipping (not free).

If you were to put together this collection piece by piece, it has been estimated that it would cost upwardly of $30,000.+ USD. The collection is worth at least $15,000. the condition it is in now. So the $10,000. asking price is actually Very Conservative.

Merchandise will be Shipped upon a cleared Paypal payment. And Insured for purchase price.

This collection has a very colorful history. After being sold once a couple of years ago there were some snags and I had to travel out of state to sue the buyer to get it back. Then I had to sue another party. Then I had to send the Marshals to physically retrieve the collection. So it sat in an office waiting to be shipped back. I had to hire someone to retrieve it. Somewhere along this line it was obviously "picked at." The whole process took about 2-1/2 years at great cost and personal stress.

Either he chose to keep his New Order CDs (the right move), or he's an idiot.

Shit, I guess my collection is worth $100,000 firm, then. Maybe I will sell. . .

I would pay maybe $3-4K for that collection on first skim, but I don't have it so nbd

I don't know. It sounds pretty half-assed to me. 87 discs missing and he won't tell you which ones. In paper sleeves without the original jewel cases. Lots of stray discs from incomplete box sets. Doesn't sound very collectible to me.

oh, missed that, lol

p sure most of these cds go for ~2 dollars on discogs

feel bad for the guy and his delusions ;_;

I just wonder what he's basing these numbers on. Median value on Discogs? Highest value on Discogs? The fact that he needs exactly $10,000 and needs it right away because this time the bookie really isn't screwing around?

lol I had a hard time selling actual legit rare CDs on eBay in recent years. this dude is sellin' a whole buncha Led Zeppelin IVs

feel bad for the guy and his delusions ;_;

^^^^

xp I don't - he bought the CDs because he wanted them, and now feels entitled to a profit. Sad!

You would think, if you're a person who believes the above collection is indeed worth ~10k in value, you would do the following:

1.) Email the guy to meet him in person to inspect the collection for yourself.
2.) Book a roundtrip plane trip, car rental, and hotel stay (if needed).
3.) Inspect his shit to see what's missing.

Has to be worth the $700-800 in expenses if you're seriously considering this.

He's come down to an $8,000 asking price now...

http://losangeles.craigslist.org/lac/emd/5961068094.html

he might get more responses if he actually put contact info in the listing

he actually looks like he copied this from an ebay listing

Well. He had sold it before
