Makes my 6.4GB, 1129 song collection seem small. :sad:

600 or so audioCDs, a few dozen of them imported into iTunes for a total of maybe 3GB (which gets deleted and new stuff imported once in a while).
Use iTunes almost exclusively to move stuff from CDs to my iPod so there's no need to retain things there.

That's a problem? I repeatedly listen to about 1/2 my library so often I get sick of it... but I like it better than the other half, so I keep listening...

Good Evening,

I just purchased my iMac in March so I'm very new to the Mac world, coming from spending 40+ years in the IT world using Big Blue and Microsoft.

Like a previous responder, I too have a large CD collection and just last weekend I completed the task of adding all my CD's into iTunes. This evening curiosity got to me as I was updating the "Genius" feature and of late I have not been able to do so, it says it times out. That's when I decided to investigate what size library's are out there. Currently I have 25,420 items accounting for 146.16GB of storage.

I was wondering if anyone converted old lp's to iTunes and if so could they advise me of a iMac product or technical document on how to do it? Also, has anyone run into the same Genius error that the results can't be updated, it use to work fine when my library was smaller so I am thinking there is a size limit to use genius.

Thanks for your help.
