My collection of cd’s and dvd’s keeps growing and is past the point of getting out of hand. Right now I own about 200-250 dvd’s and I am not even sure how many cd’s. It seems like they are breeding because they are all over. I did some thinking on ideas and I have decided that I am going to copy all of my music and movies and put them into digital form and box up all of my physical discs in the attic or spare closet.

Lucky I already have a fileserver setup and have extra storage. I will have to pick up some more hard drives as I get further into this project put I have 500 GB free so I imagine this will hold me over for the time being. Over the past few days I have started coping discs using anydvd for movies and eac for cd’s.

To play my music and movies through my house I have two media center computers, one hooked to each television. Also I have a nice set of speakers hooked to my computer for music and movies if I feel like watching them on a smaller screen. In my car I have an pioneer ipod ready car stereo so I just hook a cable to my ipod that sits in my glove box so I can listen to my music and charge my ipod at the same time.

All in all I think it will be nice once I am finished. My music was mostly completed since I have an ipod but still have around 50-80 discs left and my movie collection I have only scratched the surface. I am excited to get it done so I do 1-2 movies a night sometimes more.
