How large is your music collection?
Should I feel bad for having 7000 or so CDs? Wow bongofury...there are a few artists that I have close to 100 discs of just their albums. I don't know what I'd do if I had 200 CDs. Vinyl...I'd guess 5000 or so. 
Rolling Stone top 100 Guitarists - Howe/Van Halen
While My Guitar Gently weeps or maybe Hideaway would be Clapton in top form. First off this list is ancient. I think it's over 6 years old. This does simply come down to personal taste. I mean Manuel Gottsching, Joey Santiago, Yngwie, Doug Martsch... 
Van Halen on 200 gram vinyl?
It's just that Little Richard doesn't deserve to sandwiched between Barely Man Enough & The Gambler. 
New favorite VINYL Album?
Telefunken U47 mic on that Marianne Faithfull cover btw. 
DVD music concerts
Roy Buchanan Live At Austin City Limits will make your jaw drop. 
Van Halen on 200 gram vinyl?
Don't laugh but they're playing up the 25th anniversary of Twisted Sister's Stay Hungry album. There's also a deluxe 2CD version. The album is actually pretty decent. Don't judge it by the two songs they played on MTV. 80s version of Alice Cooper'... 
Van Halen on 200 gram vinyl?
It's 70s not 80s btw. 
Rolling Stones SACDS

Live And Dangerous & Jailbreak. 
Music Management Software 2009 ??
What's wrong with ripping to Apple Lossless instead of FLAC. It will certainly be more handy if you plan on getting an iPhone. 
indie/alternative favorites
I really like what I've heard so far from Monsters Of Folk. They're the indie-rock supergroup comprised of M. Ward, Conor Oberst(Bright Eyes) & Jim James(My Morning Jacket). There are 3 songs on their myspace page. I especially like the M. War... 
iTunes and file format
Do you plan on using Time Machine for backups? If so you should remember that the first time you perform a backup you should allot 2-3 X's the copied drive's capacity on the Time Machine drive. In other words if you set up a fresh drive as a 1TB b... 
iTunes and file format
I think instead of simply "copying" the files to the new drive you're supposed to use the Consolidate Library function. Simply copying would lead to incorrect path/directory errors wouldn't it? 
Blu-Ray movies
FYI-A certain well-known book retailer has a special on Criterion Blu-Rays right now. They're 50% off!...60% w/ discount card plus there's an additional 15% off 1 item coupon you can print out from the internet. Not sure why the mods rejected the ... 
Help with HP 9000 laptop sound
I think this is the one that would suit you better since it will run on usb or battery power instead of having to plug it into an electrical outlet.http://www.trendsaudio.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=40&Itemid=28
