currently ripping all my AE discs to oggs so I can burn them on a single disc(I hope they'll fit on one disc)
I got a 64 disc holder, and I plan to rip a shitload of CDs to mp3 and then I can just cart that to work instead of all my other discs right now. If you figure you can probably fit 8-10 cds(I'm guessing, probably even more, perhaps?) worth onto one disc, 64 CDs is then worth about 640 cds. I've only got about 350 CDs in my collection, so I can easily pull it off. I think.
I'm getting a 100 Gig hard-drive from
runningamok within a month or so(I think), so I can rip all my discs to there. Right now, I'm just ripping the few I can onto my measly 3 Gigs left on my /home partition.
I could probably rip them to my /mnt/windows, which would be better, since I have more space, and I can't really get to my ext3(or is it ext2, I can't remember... maybe i have reiserfs... shit... I'll figure it out) from windows. I think I did see a couple utils people've made that I should be able to utilize to access my linux drives from windows.
Really, though, I should only use linux anyways, except for my gaming. The only thing that bothers me is lack of quicktime support. I've got the flash and java and realplayer. But AFAICT, there's no native linux player that can handle quicktime. If I'm wrong, someone wanna give me a heads up(if you know) It's not urgent, i don't absolutely NEED Quicktime or anything(at this point), but it would be nice to have for certain instances.
