This might be the wrong forum, but could somebody tell me approximatly how many songs would equal about 8 gigabytes? I have absolutely no idea how to find out :lol: I'm guessing around 1400 because i have around 500 songs on my ipod and it uses 3gb

 

Could someone also tell me about how many songs would equal about 16 gigabytes? thanks :D

Very hard to say, depends on the way the songs have been encoded, more specifically the bitrate, and of course the length of the songs. Too many variables to tell.

i use my 1 gig psp right now for my mp3's and the bit rate varies

 

i can get 120-140 songs on it

 

 

 

take that times 8 =

 

960-1120,

 

 

 

take that times 2 for 16gig. =

 

1920-2240,

 

 

 

much more if its 128k--192k bit rate, most of my music is 320k

Ok thanks for the help LP :D

Yeah, as people here have said, depends on length and quality. All the songs I have ripped from my CDs, I rip them at max quality as you do notice a huge difference when they going through my car sterio.

 

 

 

320kb/s is where it is at.

 

 

 

My iPOD is a 30GIG U2 one, I have 23.21gigs of music on it, and that is 2897 songs. But I have alot of live music and long tracks on there.

I've been told that 8 GB ipod can store about 2000 songs, if you have tracks of like 5 minutes maximum. But it depends what type of files you use ofcourse.

I have ~2750 songs and it's ~13 GB. Doing that math that would be ~1700 songs for 8 GB but it also depends on your track length and how big each file is (higher quality = more space used).
