To kick start the BRAGGING RIGHTS !
This is my screenshot of total size:



please follow on using screenshots of your media folder

Edit: now i have changed it to a general chat session for audiophiles as i see not much contribution on the "bragging right" title base, instead a lot of discussion and chit-chatter

LOL all MP3 files?

1411kbps consider as FLAC?

A good start!

18.3 GB only. My music folder consists of 2101 files. Some files are picture files(for folder thumbnail) so can't say exactly how many out of those are actual music. used to be larger, but compressed some FLAC albums that I rarely listen to into 320kbps mp3 to save space. Luckily I still have the original CDs.

....
What's there to brag about?
Who is the bigger pirate here?

lol.

shhh... slow2 a bit la... tats y i scared/don1 2 'show off'

hehehe...

Hmm...
What if we brag about CD collections?

Can showcase all your CDs here with pictures.

still stuck with these collections until now, i need new songs!

Someone answer my question please~

1411Kbps consider as standard Audio CD quality of 16bit 44.1kHz
And i think FLAC can have up to 1411Kbps quality.

1411Kbps = Data Rate/Bandwith (in kilobits)
Think of it as the speed at which digital audio is streamed over a network
2 channels (stereo audio) x 16 bits x 44.1 Khz = 1,411 Kbps (kilobits per second)
Actually its 1411.2 kbps (kilobits): 2 x 16 x 44.1= 1411.2

Let's continue our bragging... LOL

Cause I just happen to rip one of my CD collection and realised the details on it~
Sample rate - 44100Hz
Channels - 2
Bits per sample - 16
Bitrate - 1411kbps
Codec - PCM
Encoding - Lossless

Consider as FLAC? Or better than FLAC?

That's uncompressed. FLAC is the same thing, only compressed, kinda like ZIP file.
Supposedly(and logically) both should sound the same. Probably you need better hardware to decode FLAC properly, so that's why some people hear that the uncompressed audio sounds better.

FLAC is an audio format, a lossless audio codec. I read somewhere that bitrate doesn't matter when it comes to lossless?

Then how big is FLAC file size for normal 3 minute song?
I thought uncompress is always better than compress?


My detail also showed lossless~

Wah, so many!!
You think I should invest in an external hard disk to store my music? I'm thinking of CD hunting at the end of this month.
Do they last long at all? Not planning on plugging it in every time I wanna listen to music through laptop, just as a storage device.

Usually around 30gb each file.

I hope it's typing error~

It depends on the song and how you rip it.

But if one song is 30GB I wonder how many songs can one have~
