all my portable players support opus, so I've started using that to save space :)

kepstin-work: I convert to lossy (Vorbis) for my music player. It doesn't have infinite space though, so I only convert what I figure I'll want to listen to on the go. :)

Wow. That's a good deal more than I have sorted.

I think my ipod still has about 30-40gb free

Leftmost: keep in mind that that includes two copies of everything in both flac and some lossy format.

Yeah. My player has native support for Ogg Vorbis (and FLAC, if need be), so I haven't switched it to Rockbox.
2012-12-06 34137, 2012
kepstin-work also has some music that's only in lossy formats.

I didn't want it to feel out of place in /.

Freso has /mnt/media - but then, that's also a separate partition, and I didn't feel like inventing a top level dir. :p
2012-12-06 34106, 2012
kepstin-work has /home/cwalton/Music

admittedly, that's technically just an alias of /mnt/mdraid/home/cwalton/Music/ :)

That's on my server. I have /home/sdeburca/ceol on my laptop.

it's served on nfs as makoto.kepstin.ca:/home/cwalton/Music

kepstin-work: Yeah. I have another login I sometimes boot to autologin as when I just want the machine to act as a mediacenter (ie., it'll boot into XBMC). I don't want to give that access to my $HOME. :)
My collection is all FLAC, save for the transcoded versions for portability.
2012-12-06 34110, 2012
kepstin-work has some direct artist downloads, a couple of itunes things, and a few things that simply predate his switch to lossless.

I don't tend to buy music unless I can get it in FLAC.
2012-12-06 34145, 2012
kepstin-work has actually bought cds a couple times because he wanted something better than the mp3 download.

One of Wisp's albums he distributed as mp3 that I had before my switch, but my desire for homogeneity eventually overrode my desire to keep that album.

My media is meticulously organized, and part of that is homogeneity.
