Backup, sort and reorganise all my music

2006-09-26

The origin of this task is the rather doubtful privilege of having to skip the current track about ten times to actually get to some music I enjoy. When I started, I had accumulated about 10.000 songs. What I did was to listen to all of them in alphabetical order, removing artists, albums or songs I did not like.

The endeavour took roughly two months to accomplish, but I managed to trim the 10.000 songs down to around 3.300. I must say I enjoyed doing this, because I got to listen to a lot of music I’ve never heard. Most of it I threw away, but some of it I’ve kept. I also tagged everything neatly and got rid of incomplete or corrupt versions of songs or albums. In the future I will, hopefully, be able to do this piecemeal and thus avoid having the same item on the 101-list that will succeed this one.
