JoeChartreuse said:Um, define "substantial". If you mean 50-100K tracks, you're right. However, how many KJs that have 100K tracks actually have the discs? The cost would be prohibitive considering even the best of bar fees.
Also, why would anyone bother buying that many unneeded tracks? When would they get used?
I've been at this a few decades. I carry somewhere around 14,000 tracks to venues ( fitting in 3 600 disc binders), another few thousand foreign language discs when I do private events, and have a box of maybe another 5000 songs that I've either removed or never bothered adding to the library. Of those thousands that I carry, I guess I use MAYBE 500 on a REGULAR basis. Call it- TOPS - 25K tracks total even after decades of accumulation, and I generally carry only a bit more than half that. That's 3 binders hand carried with no problem.
Of course, this is also another reason why the piracy issue was minimal by comparison to today's MP3 hosting. If people are to lazy or out of shape to carry 15K tracks, they sure as hell aren't going to carry 100K.
MP3 ROCK, huh?! :trirolleyes::triwink:
With all due respect Joe, I don't see anything in your illustration that constructively justifies you carrying that many discs or the CD players to match.
What I do see is someone who is simply not willing and without a compelling need to move out of their present comfort zone; and that's just fine.
