My ears have been busy
As of 10:18 PM tonight, I crossed milestone #4 in my Music Collection Enjoyment Project®.
Woohoo.
This means that every song in my music collection has been listened to by me, from beginning to end, a minimum of 4 times... since I started keeping track of the play counts in the iTunes application, anyway.
(The collection is about 13000 songs, for a total of about 1300 hours, or 56 full days for one complete listen, give or take)
I crossed milestone #3 back in October of last year. This one took 8 months, while to get from 2-3 took only 5 months. However, I've been buying a lot of music lately and I had to listen to the new stuff several times to get them caught up.
The rules (which I made up) say that once something is in my collection, it is in it for good, and it becomes part of the eternal rotation whether I like it or not.
Of course there are a number of albums I deeply regret purchasing, but rules is rules.
Curse you, Metal Machine Music.
Now, on to milestone #5. It's de facto tradition that I start off with "An Index of Metals".
Woohoo.
