| What's the farthest you've traveled for live music i've driven about 330 miles from mobile, alabama to see a concert in atlanta, georgia a few times. typically though, i drive to new orleans for live shows and general debauchery. | |
| Music File Storage Preference i have my music files stored on a 1TB hard drive in a folder named "ALBUMS". They are arranged by "artist - album name". i only have about 500 albums though, but i like it this way. for multi-disc sets, i just save them as (Disc 1) and (Disc 2). e... | |

| Beatles Mono Boxes Good news more on the way dungn:i didn't know. just ascertained from the tone of your post. you would've probably had better luck living in a tiny village up north. i live in a smallish town (~400,000 pop.), and nobody around here seems to care about music or sound quality... | |
| beatle remasters on vinyl? well actually, i only had a crappy cd copy of sgt. peppers, let it be, and the second disc of the white album, so getting the entire set in mono plus the remaining remastered stereos was a no brainer for me. and....since i don't have any beatles a... | |
