this is torture

In my ample spare time

at the moment I am up loading all my CDs into itunes. A process that I always figured would be boring, but is proving to be a modern version of water torture, mainly due to the fact that the optical disc drive dosen't appear to go faster then 4X speed. I have maxed out the hard drive (now 100G) to accomodate all this data, and it looks like I'm going to use it all. To date I have brought in 3500 songs @ 128kb AAC format, that is (15G) enough music to last 9 days without any repeats! The scary thing is I'm only a fifth or a quarter the way through, (yes i have a big CD collection). The other thing I've noted is just how crap a lot of it is LOL. When I finally get to the end of this horror, I think I'll sell most of the CD's I don't rate as classics or keepers. Was thinking real groovy would be a good place to start, but was wondering if anyone else could sugest some place where I could get a better deal, when selling secondhand in bulk like this. Thanks. DR.

Now the homeless you say, do they pay well, maybe they could use them to build a little CD fort.

Its because of Electromagnetic energy loss.

When up loading with I tunes, there are more than likely to be a minimum of 50000 people doing the same thing. Because of this, the +ve energy airwidth is getting used up.

iTunes was written for an OS that works...therefore if youre using a windows machine then its not always a great app. If you havent got a Mac then buy one. Then you *shouldnt* have these issues. Takes about 5mins (I think) on a base level eMac.
