around 185 gig

2 years, 8 months ago

..But on topic: 37 GB.
7750 songs.

95.09 GB
15517 songs

Have listened to about 98% of it. Still working on the last few hundred songs I added.


And then I've gotta get some money to get a bigger HDD and convert a ton of that to 320 since most of it is in 192

Huh?

The only with you will achieve by converting 192 to 320 is nothing.

This.

Also, only 41 GB for me.

But I thought 320 kbps is better quality? Or are you saying it's unnoticeable?

Plus I figure if I'd be sharing any of it to keep up a ratio, it'd have to be 320 for the picky people. Maybe not, I guess?

/facepalm

You are transcoding a file from lossy to lossy... Oh dear.

You are actually making the quality worse by converting a 192KBPS song file to 320KBPS. You can't convert a lossy file to a higher bitrate lossy file. It doesn't work like that.

You can convert lossless to lossy and lossless to lossless - e.g: FLAC -> V0 , FLAC -> 320KBPS; FLAC -> WAV, WAV -> ALAC.

You cannot do anything else. You're listening to worse quality music than the music you downloaded in the first place.

Oh yes, I know that. Maybe there was some confusion in my original post. What I meant was that I'd need to re-rip all those CDs I have into 320 since I originally did it as 192 because I didn't have the space.


Heh, c'mon guys, I'm not that big of a tech idiot

Why don't you rip it at native?
