I have spent approximately 3-4 hours today trying to build and then cull playlists for my 2GB mp3 player.

Posted by TFox Jan 18 '10, 20:09

One would think the 2GB would be easier to manage than the 20GB, but helllllll no. Deciding to lop out an album for another album you are more in the mood for is easy. Trying to find room in that little thing for four genre-specific playlists, and deciding on a song-by-song basis? Excruciating.

i'm level-seven weird. i do not own an mp3 player -- nm - i'm gay for batman Jan 18, 20:20 3
- iBox 0GB. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 18, 20:25
- but your wax cylinder collection is second-to-none. -- nm - Reagen Jan 18, 20:21 1
  - man, the (deceased) owner of my childhood home left behind a *ton* of 78 records in our attic - i'm gay for batman Jan 18, 20:24
I find 4GB to be the sweet spot. my phone is 16 and that's too much. my blue lipstick player is 2 and that's way not enough. - amanchester Jan 18, 20:11 25
- I like around that amount, too. it makes me be choosier, so there's less skipping needed. -- nm - b! Jan 18, 20:18 2
  - exactly!! precisely! -- nm - amanchester Jan 18, 20:19 1
    - *jumps over a couch* -- nm - Tom Cruise Jan 18, 20:21
- I need a 20GB or more player as my "primary". This is my "workout" player. -- nm - TFox Jan 18, 20:13 19
  - 8MB works fine for me. I have just one and never fill it. I could probably be fine with 4. -- nm - loosilu Jan 18, 20:16
  - I get kind of anxious about having less than 20 on a device. - Reagen Jan 18, 20:15 1
    - Filling this 2GB properly suuuucked. It was an interesting exercise but... I'm glad its done. - TFox Jan 18, 20:19
  - I like to be very active in managing my music. I like smaller players because they make me switch out music often. - amanchester Jan 18, 20:14 14
    - It's funny how people use these things differently. There are certain bands that I *need* their entire catalog on my iPod at all times. - TFox Jan 18, 20:17 13
      - I like letting things go random too much for that. -- nm - b! Jan 18, 20:20 10
        
        yeah, i'm either in "listen to this album in order" or "listen to this artist on shuffle". those are my only two modes. - TFox Jan 18, 20:23 9
        
        I'm kind of sad for you. you'll never experience the magic that is two songs you wouldn't think would go together, um, going together. -- nm - b! Jan 18, 20:27 8
        
        I use songs to manage my mood. Something weird popping in would throw that off - Reagen Jan 18, 20:29 4
        
        I have this playlist called "depeche mode that makes me either happy or sad." it makes me manic. I kind of love it. -- nm - amanchester Jan 18, 20:37
        
        well, I can still do that if I want/need to, as I sometimes do. -- nm - b! Jan 18, 20:36
        
        My wife hates the way I listen to music. AC/DC can come up right after Little River Band and I go with it. - TWuG Jan 18, 20:34
        
        *ding* -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 18, 20:29
        
        like hearing 311 and 2 Skinnee J's back to back. that's nirvana -- nm - i'm gay for batman Jan 18, 20:28 2
        
        that *is* nirvana. -- nm - TFox Jan 18, 20:31 1
        
        shit like that made HAL 9000 kill the crew -- nm - i'm gay for batman Jan 18, 20:32
      - This is how I am. I need every Radiohead song at finger tip away. -- nm - Reagen Jan 18, 20:18 1
        
        Radiohead was another one, but they were recently downgraded to a 3-4 album block. -- nm - TFox Jan 18, 20:20
  - (I'm actually psyched about a 32GB phone, because I could retire the primary.) -- nm - TFox Jan 18, 20:13
- your lips play mp3s? -- nm - i'm gay for batman Jan 18, 20:12 1
  - I have an mp3 player that looks like a lipstick. it's kind of awesome. the "lipstick" is blue. -- nm - amanchester Jan 18, 20:15
