Finally, look at the bottom of your iTunes window. How many days of music do you have?
5.3 days, which is totally unreflective of my entire music collection. We have so many CDs that the two CD racks we do have are completely filled and the rest are crawling all over the living room floor, filling up multiple Rubbermaid bins, and scattered all over Hay's desk. I do try to get my albums from iTunes now so that I don't add to the problem. I have no guess at how many days' worth of music I'd have if every album I loved were in my iTunes.

Whoa. I thought I was a follower, too, but I don't have iTunes installed. WOO! I'm better than you people! *snoot*
Kristen, I have a Mac. It comes pre-installed. :)
Stay is such a great song. I've loved that since the day it came out.
You have a Mac? And here I liked you.
I don't get this Mac vs. PC crap. Who cares what kind of computer I use? It's the one work gave me for free. If they gave me a Linux laptop I'd use that instead. Besides, my Mac can run Windows, so suck on that, pal. :P
A free computer is a free computer. But for people who choose Macs over PC as their main computer - the one they choose to buy - I can't understand it. PCs have much more expandability and adaptability. I build my own, so I'm just a snob like that. :P
