No hard one's allowed here ... I have an ipod with 6000 songs in it, I need to listen to more music in 2009. I have a Mets collection of paper and cardboard that most would call extra- ordinary, I need to organize it and enjoy it more in 2009. I also resolve not to kick anyone in the cunt or punch them in the neck or eat the corn out of their poo. C'mon, that last one was funny.

I have close to a hundred rolls of developed film in boxes. They're already labeled and in chronolical order. I need to get some albums and put the best shots in them. I listen to music quite often, but the vast majority of it is from the 20th century. I want to try listening to more current music to see if there is enough good stuff out there to make the effort worthwhile.

I want to lose more weight. I know that's not easy, but since I'm looking at losing 2-3 pounds a month, I think that it's realistic. Easier resolution - I want to become more knowledgeable about photography and learn how to take better pictures.

I joined a gym between Christmas and New Years, and I've been going every other day... It opens at 4 during the week, and I've been there right at opening this week... Kong76 Jan 08 2009 02:57 PM batmags: How many GB of IPOD audio memory do your 6,000 songs use up? <<< 5645 songs (to be exact) uses ~ 22.3 GB ... I have one of those black hole ipods so I'm only at 41%. batmagadanleadoff Jan 10 2009 08:51 AM ="Kong76"]batmags: How many GB of IPOD audio memory do your 6,000 songs use up? <<< 5645 songs (to be exact) uses ~ 22.3 GB ... I have one of those black hole ipods so I'm only at 41%. Thanks. I don't own an IPOD and don't know what a black hole one is. I asked you about your memory usage because I want to purchase one and was trying to determine how much memory I might need. (Thread Hijack Defense): I promised myself I'd get one this year, mainly because I'm sick of bringing CD's into my car, where the jewel cases inevitably get scratched, scuffed, chipped, cracked and/or shattered. Not to mention that with an IPOD, I'd always have my entire music collection in the palm of my hand. Rockin' Doc Jan 10 2009 09:41 AM Using the information KC provided, 41% full with 22.3 GB, then I would expect that he has roughly 55-60 GB of total storage on his IPod. A 60 GB drive will hold approximately 12,000 songs of 5 minutes length each (or 15,000 songs of 4 minutes). Just keep in mind that you can store approximately 250 songs of 4 minutes each for each 1 GB of storage space. Hopefully, this will be helpful. batmagadanleadoff Jan 10 2009 10:01 AM I took KC's 5645 songs and divided it by 22.3(GB) to derive about 253 songs per GB. I assumed that KC's collection is typical (as far as length of songs go) and that, thus, 5645 songs is enough of a sample size that I wouldn't have to worry about length of song. (Unless he's got a disproportionately high number of bootleg concerts on his IPOD, which often aren't indexed by song and register as one long song (the entire length of the concert). Kong76 Jan 10 2009 11:31 AM Yeah, I got one of those 60 GB ones. By black hole I only meant that when I got it it was considered a large amount of storage and that I'll never fill it.
