What are my colleagues listening to?


I love my iTunes so I got a huge kick out of this. I can't believe some of the **** I listen to.

This is hard because I have two computers running iTunes and Windows Media Player

I think you can choose "Add A Folder" and make your C: drive that folder.

I have to have all mu stuff organized, though - very anal about it.

I too am really anal about the way my music is organized...I just spent 3 hours this morning going thru my files when I should have been studying!
 
That's a sweet playlist dude. I'd like to steal your computer
 
How do you convert audio songs to mp3? I want to add some songs from CDs that I've got on my computer to my iTunes, but it won't let me. I know it can be done with winamp, but I can't remember how.

Download another song and see what is the default file for music dowloads. That's where your stuff is.

This guy's plume was much bigger than that. I tried to figure out how to post it on here for viewing, but no luck yet. It's like 15-18 inches of flames.

Sometimes the software with mp3 players is pretty crappy. (I find apple's itunes to be the exception) So that could be what is going on. I've never used the iriver software.

I'd first look in the file itself and make sure the songs are there. If they are then move them to a file that your iRIVER software does recognize. If that doesn't work go to the iriver site and find the help section. Plan C is jump on the bandwagon and go buy an ipod. 😀
