Re: Rating Songs in iTunes
When I first read this thread, my reaction was - "I never use the ratings." However, after taking a long road trip this past weekend, I realized I do have my own system of categorizing. I tend to get into genres rather than specific favorite songs. Some days I'm into alternative pop, other days, the blues (but only when I'm happy....) other days I'm into classic jazz or smooth jazz or whatever. I tend to be genre specific depending on where I am, too. For example, in my office, I'll play more laid back softer stuff like Jack Johnson and in my car more head bopping upbeat kind of stuff. I'll also put together songs that are in my key so I can sing along with them in the car. Around the house - it's more jazz oriented and I do enjoy going to listen to a classical orchestra, but almost never listen to classical outside of a concert setting. For the most part, I can tell you who is playing (ok, with a few exceptions), but what the name of a song is (with almost no exceptions) I don't have a clue.
For the record (yuk, yuk) I almost never listen to music directly off the computer. I do have my stereo system at home run through the computer (or is it the other way around???) I much prefer to decompress anything in iTunes and burn it onto a disc. Even at school, I play it through a decent system.
Is thatnerdy geeky enough for ya?
