How big is your media library? I have 4620 tracks in mine. Wondering what other folks have. I don't know where to get this info, if you're using the Default UI. In Columns UI, it's at the bottom left on the status bar.

I sincerely apologize, for being lax as a moderator. I will do better. I've just started a forum, unrelated to audio, so hopefully checking in with that place, will remind me to check in here as well. Gotta put checking in here on my daily to-do list. Thank you all for sticking around. More content is coming. See this post

Hey folks, here are links to the documentation for Foobar2000 and EAC.

This should get you started. They're not as newbie friendly as I'd like. I'm working on my own newbie friendly how-to, for both Foobar2000, and EAC. It's been on the back burner. But it will get done.

Post those tunes or albums!

Right now I"m listening to Norah Jones' Feels Like Home.

What tunes or albums are you playing?

I've been holding off upgrading since I'd heard bad things, but I can't actually remember what those bad things were.

Is it worth the upgrade? The only thing I don't like is that Foobar seems to only save tabs ("playlists") when it closes, which means if my machine crashes/hard resets then it reverts to an old set.

Welcome to EAC & foobar2000. I created this community, to have a place where we could discuss these apps. I might expanded this community to all audio players/CD rippers soon. We'll see if it takes off. If Lemmy supports sticky threads, I'd like to have a weekly "What are you listening to" thread. Discussion of different audio codecs is welcome!! But please keep debate civil.

I'd like to keep this community music/audio focused. Please read the rules before posting. And have fun!! Digital audio is a wonderful hobby!!

I've decided to allow discussions on the ethics around piracy. How you obtain your music/media is your business. However, if debates/discussions get nasty and/or hostile I'll have to implement stricter rules. Feel free to discuss this in the comments.
