anyone see the iTunes 500,000,000 song giveaway?
if you get the 500,000,000th song (there's a counter) you get 10 iPod, with a 50 song giftcard for each, tickets + passes to Coldplay (eh) and a 10,0000 song card. can you imagine how long it would take to get pick (let along download) 10,000 songs? maybe I'll get lucky...

1. I'm not going to go for it, but
10,000 is really a lot of songs.

I'm closing on 4,400 and I already think that I have a lot.

10. depends on the lenght of the song
I went with 10,000 songs at an average radio-play length of 3.5 minutes. your performance may vary.

2. I have 1947 songs
on my 20 gig ipod, taking up a whole 3.59 gigs. Probably 1400 of the songs are from my bird CD's.

I've got most of my cd's burned, and I really can't imagine what to do with the rest of the space.

Clinton's book? Any other suggestions????
