    Thanks, I'm just going to do some trial and error here I think.

     

    I'm only trying to do this to speed up the process...I have a lot of discs to burn and precious little time to burn them. copying them into my itunes library, making a playlist and burning it, then deleting the files and playlist from the itunes library just isn't fun anymore.

    Seeking some advice...

     

    How can I make an audio CD that will work in my stereo without using Itunes or toast etc...

     

    I want to burn discs using just my finder...should I just number the .aiff tracks 1, 2, 3, etc. and burn it as is? Also, can I leave the title of the track in the filename?

     

    (I'm using Mac OSX)

     

    Thanks for the help!

    Chicago - you're in for a treat.

     

    What Light was the song dedicated to John's new baby...I think he said her name was Grace, but I could be wrong.

     

    Late Greats was dedicated to Detholtz, the openers. What an honor! I actually kind of liked them, especially because they were honest about just hyping Wilco the whole time...nice work.

     

    Best moment of the night: Tweedy goofing around and claiming that he was earning star power points for Guitar Hero!

     

    Sunken Treasure full on electric was fantastic.

     

    The new song, "I'm Gonna Shake It Off" - or whatever you want to call it - was amazing.

     

    Is that the Thanksgiving I get? Yes, yes it is...

     

    Goodnight VC, can't wait to hear the recording.

    Truth - I own them all. But thanks for the suggestions anyway. You can count me as one of those people who prefers the Tweedy sound to the Farrar sound. No big deal, no disrespect to Farrar, it's just the way it turned out for me.

     

    Me too, although I f'n' love Son Volt.

    If you don't know, or missed this one...check it out. Dean Gray's 'American Edit' is Very Cool (with a capital 'V' and 'C').

     

    Basically this guy going by the name of Dean Gray took Green Day's album 'American Idiot' and mashed it up with all kinds of great songs including U2, Johnny Cash, Travis, Oasis, and a lot more into an album called 'American Edit.' He didn't just do it, but he did a really really good job. All he asked was that listeners donate some moolah to charity. Of course, Warner Bros. shut him down. Interestingly, Billy Joe Armstrong (lead-singer of Green Day) thought the project was pretty cool, too.

    Read these articles, they explain it much better than I can and between the three of them you should be well on your way to experiencing one of the most interesting musical adventures in recent memory...

    Music storage

    in Solid State Technology

    Posted

    I have a 150 Gb Lacie external hard drive. It has done wonders for me for over a year now but yesterday took a turn for the worst. Basically, I can just tell it is on the verge of crashing - it is operating very slowly and some files have been lost. I keep all my music on it (about 100 Gb of mp3s and m4as) and I burn all my backup files of wavs and flacs onto DVDs. I'm beginning to undrestand that even firewire 800 is NOT meant as constant access to my music files - I probably shouldn't have my iTunes library linked to an external hard drive. Or can I do it (without worrying about the disc crashing)? I use a Powerbook G4 and my 80 Gb internal drive is hardly enough to store all the music I want. My options are: get a new external (a better brand maybe?), a bigger internal hard drive, or find some other way to store my music collection.

     

    Looking for suggestions...
