How much space do the Manics take up on your hard drive?

In itunes alone I've racked up 3.56GB and that's not including a load of live tracks I don't play through itunes...

And no one will, for money makes us up

Death to monetaries!

No idea about space, but looking at my windows media player I have 273 Manics songs, so it's a fair bit, more than other artists.

it was about 7 gig when I used the desktop a lot and it had a terrabyte so I had space for stuff I don't listen to much. Nothing on net book & laptop which are used 99% of the time. I always have my mp3 player on random play but I'm gonna take Manics and a few other things off as I just skip them all the time.

5 gig plus in pictures and documents, I have no idea how much in music, as I don't keep separate music folders for different bands.

I'm no expert, but aren't pictures and documents really small and 5 gigabytes really big?


Can't work mine out for the time being cos my computer cable exploded and I'm on my brother's laptop. Oops. I know I've downsized all my mp3s to 96kbps so they take up less space. I'm half deaf in one ear and listen to this stuff through crappy laptop speakers so there's not much point me having the best quality.

Text documents are small in size, but pictures take up space when there is a significant volume which in my case for the Manics is...9,000+.
