For the people that have large libraries, how do you keep track of what you've listened to? What meathod do you use? I've heard pen and paper method , I've heard using cells in excel. Just wondering on ideas that might work for me
>>

>>
last.fm

About the only thing it's good for anymore.

Do I have to scrobble everything?>>71842156
I've been using this so far but there are things not on there I'll have to add my hand
>>
>>71842128
>find something I want to listen to
>download it on slsk
>add it to my "Unlistened" folder
>get round to listening to it
>it scrobbles (I repeat music/listen to favs on a different player that doesn't scrobble)
>check last.fm every couple of days
>rate anything I didn't rate at the time on RYM
>add it to my google spreadsheets of albums listened to this year (I'm aiming for 1000)

Now I've written it out it sounds kinda autistic but it works for me
>>
I just put things haven't listened to yet in my 'backlog' playlist on MusicBee and remove them once I have.
>>
>>71842711
I think john peel was on par with this
>>
Anyone use aimp2 and just toggle off what you've listened to?
>>
>>71842711
Oh, and obviously move it out of the unlistened folder to the artist folder once I've listened to it
>>
last.fm mainly
also I've got a nice system going where I'll only download album art upon first listening to an album (seeing as I download it via the foo_run extension)

anyway, if you don't remember listening to something then either you haven't listened to it or it's probably worth listening to again

I just remembered scruffi called this hip hop . It's on his list http://www.scaruffi.com/music/hiphop.html

>>71842189
Just add it to their database then, it keeps everything in one place and you help out the RYM community by expanding the database.

>>71843740
nah dude. Remember that artists purposely designed their albums bearing in mind that people would have to get up and switch sides. The difference between when I used to not and now that I add the silence is pretty huge. Every vinyl album is like a full meal with the pause between sides, highly recommend trying for a while
>>
I have over 4000 albums in my library and I'd estimate that I've listened to around 2500 of them (I like having a huge backlog).

I've never really had a problem remembering which ones I've listened to. Occasionally I think I'll start listening to something that I think I haven't heard before, only to realize that I have, but that happens very rarely.
>>

>i'll start listening to something that i think i haven't heard before

I like to whine at people like you because I have half as many albums but have listened to them all ~7-8 times
>>
>>71842128
I know whether I've listened to something or not. It's just easy for me to keep track of.
>>
I rate most things i've listened to on RYM
I use last.fm
I have serparate libraries for stuff i listened to and my backlog.

and i don't delete any stuff that i already listened to.
