240,000 songs...

That's about how much you can store onto 1 terabyte... and to be quite honest, my brain can't really wrap itself around that figure.

It's not that my brain can't comprehend the number. It does, it understands it very well. However the concept of storing 240k songs onto my minidisc player is something that I find a wee bit excessive.

You see, when I select songs I want to listen to on my minidisc player, I do so because I intend on LISTENING to them. In this lifetime. More then once, even. I put on, say 45 songs, and a couple of commutes to work later, I have heard them, enjoyed them and ready to listen to them again. I can easily shuffle through the songs if I want a particular one (lately I've been really enjoying Amerie's hit One Thing). I can't begin to imagine how long it would taken me to shuffle through 240,000 songs. Even spread through different folders. The number, even for this musiphile, is just too great.

It's just too much...
