oddly, drsaunde, I think you may possibly have the closest compatability of any MB user to me, just from the artist list, even if last.fm thinks you're low... almost everyone is "very low" against mine :P
2007-11-17 32110, 2007
drsaunde
still...there's probably not much techno or hip-hop on your list :-)
2007-11-17 32126, 2007
MClemo
brianfreud: yeah, I'm very low against you, too
2007-11-17 32135, 2007
brianfreud
techno yes (all old stuff like kraftwerk though), hip hop, nope, none on mine
2007-11-17 32140, 2007
drsaunde
speaking of...just listed to the Hot Chip remix of Aerodynamic ... Awesome!!!!

gotcha
2007-11-17 32137, 2007
brianfreud
and me vs drsaunde: 33.88%
2007-11-17 32155, 2007
LotR gets 32.54% against brianfreud
2007-11-17 32140, 2007
brianfreud
drsaunde, the common tags don't surprise me though - electronic, indie, rock, and alternative
2007-11-17 32158, 2007
LotR
wow, *big* soundtrack tag for brianfreud :)
2007-11-17 32102, 2007

I'm surprised MClemo got so huge a singer songwriter tag, while it didn't even show up for me or drsaunde

lotr, and for a laugh, the two little tiny ones to the right of sundtrack in my cloud there are "soundtracks" and "trailer music", bth of which could be soundtrack too :D

2007-11-17 32150, 2007

they both got a rather big singer-songwriter
2007-11-17 32135, 2007

scripts like that so ought to do a tag normalisation step
2007-11-17 32117, 2007
MClemo
LotR: what's "koekje erbij" supposed to mean?
2007-11-17 32152, 2007
LotR
koekje is dutch for cookie. koekje erbij means 'do you want a cookie with that'
2007-11-17 32108, 2007
MClemo
ha, I'd like a cookie with that! ;)
2007-11-17 32134, 2007
LotR
exactly :)
2007-11-17 32137, 2007

LotR
drsaunde: do you manipulate your scrobbles to get that ratio? :)
2007-11-17 32119, 2007
drsaunde
nope
2007-11-17 32140, 2007
drsaunde
but I guess I usually only listen to random stuff on my computer while I tackle full albums in my car
2007-11-17 32108, 2007
LotR
for some artists you can't even have heard all their stuff. I like some music too much not to play it more often than once or twice
2007-11-17 32127, 2007
MClemo
I wouldn't have enough artists in my collection to accomplish such a ratio
2007-11-17 32104, 2007
drsaunde
again...last.fm only highlights my computer listening (as with all of you as well)
2007-11-17 32136, 2007
LotR
most of my music listening is recorded
2007-11-17 32157, 2007
brianfreud
pretty much all my music listening it computer based, so it's 99.9% accurate for me
2007-11-17 32105, 2007
LotR
I wish my phone kept a record of what was played, so I could scrobble that too
2007-11-17 32116, 2007
MClemo
the stuff I listen in my car isn't very different from what I listen at home, so it's fairly accurate
2007-11-17 32128, 2007
drsaunde
i even dumped my iPod plugin...so that stuff is not included either
2007-11-17 32131, 2007
MClemo
you can sync iPods, I think
2007-11-17 32130, 2007
LotR
MClemo: yeah, but I don't have an ipod. I wanted just a single gadget to remember to take with me, so I have an mp3-player/camera/phone (in order of importance :)
2007-11-17 32159, 2007
LotR
MClemo: your ratio is pretty extreme too, just in the other direction :)

true. but it got better I think, was more extreme a couple of months ago
2007-11-17 32143, 2007
MClemo
not much, though ;)
2007-11-17 32159, 2007
brianfreud
lol, my ratio doesn't have any fun stats, other than that one single tags sinks every single other one
2007-11-17 32103, 2007
drsaunde wonders about brian's ratio of soundtracks listened to vs. films seen
2007-11-17 32150, 2007
brianfreud
hmmm
2007-11-17 32156, 2007
brianfreud
prob 1:1...
2007-11-17 32128, 2007
brianfreud
though only maybe 40-50% of the titles on both lists
2007-11-17 32104, 2007
LotR
you mean you listen the soundtracks of movies you haven't seen?
One example: I've seen very few old Italian movies, but I've heard plenty of old Morricone scores
2007-11-17 32132, 2007
LotR
brianfreud: I like your avatar, but it doesn't scale well :)

whichever you choose will be half wrong. I think there's a proposal for one of the types on the advanced list to be such a mix, but for the moment, I'd pick one and put a note about that event in the annotation.
2007-11-17 32103, 2007
nikki
or you could enter identical release info with the other format
2007-11-17 32154, 2007

then it makes it look like it had 2 releases, rather than one mixed one

yeah, I heard it once at philips when it was really new. it does make quite a difference (with a good audio system)
2007-11-17 32148, 2007

and with good ears :)
2007-11-17 32103, 2007
Shepard doesn't have those, luckily, saves him a lot of money
2007-11-17 32114, 2007

but I rip all my audio anyway. not sure if flac constraints work for sacd too
2007-11-17 32140, 2007

2007-11-17 32149, 2007

Shepard: I don't have good ears either. but when they demoed playing a track from a regular cd and from sacd, I definitely heard the difference
2007-11-17 32155, 2007
drsaunde proudly owns 2 he found at a garage sale
2007-11-17 32110, 2007

The way I see it, she's capable of so much more, but on that album her talents underestimated. Not surprising considering that Holopainen wrote most of the music for Nightwish
2007-11-17 32124, 2007
Muzzz
It's well produced though, and nice, just rather lacking and there's no real replay value to it
