Hi all,
Well, among the many reasons I do not need to explain, iTunes has pissed me off for the last time. It seems to have an issue with my rather large library of 80,000 songs and 500 Gb. I would like to transfer music and videos to my iPod without trouble, and I would like a program that can manage 80,000+ songs and several playlists of hundreds of songs. If anyone has found a better way to do this, please let me know! Thanks in advance!

That's an unreasonably huge library. I would be surprised to see any music management app that wouldn't choke on 80k songs.

I'm sure you obtained these legally?

Winamp has iPod-synching capabilities built-in at the moment, I believe. I have around 200GB of music and it's never choked one bit. Give it a try

I know it is more music than anyone should have, but I can't throw any of it out, and it is nice to hear older stuff now and then. I could leave the music playing for a year before the library began to repeat. I put the player on random and get a great mix of music... not the same old played out crap you hear on the radio (not to mention the ads). And please don't tell me to get satellite radio...
![]() It normally plays fine on my PC, but sometimes the whole library gets wiped clean... and do you realize how long it takes to load 80,000 songs with the album artwork? I have to leave it for about 10 hours. ![]() The worst part is how the iPod will not load onto other PC's. I reloaded Windows and now must wipe my iPod to reload my music... pain in the arse... I was looking into Winamp. Any experience with that?

Winamp is a great program...Probably the best iPod alternative
http://getsongbird.com/ Songbird is also very good, it is made by mozilla, the people who make Firefox.
