DO YOU BURN?

[Duchess]

Do any of you burn your own CD's? I have a shit ton of CD's and almost all of them were purchased for only a song or two. I'm over it and considering burning my own with all my favorite tunes.

[QueenBee]

Yes, that is all I ever do now. Another thing I have been doing is putting all my tunes onto a flash drive. I can file then by artist, or category, whatever.
Oh and here is a cool thing, did you know you can download music from YouTube to your computer? Then you can burn it, or flash drive it. The cool thing is, those ads that are in front of some videos, do not download, so you just get the music. Here is the site I use. It is free.
http://www.youtube-mp3.org/

Just paste the URL of the song into the space, click convert video. Then when that is done, click download when prompted.

I burned mine years ago, now I am all stored media. Everything is on a hard drive and I use Rhapsody to manage it. For outside I dump what I want on a spare ipod and put it on the Bose dock on the patio.

Bose

Best sound system evah! I have that in my car & have always regretted not getting it for my home theater system.

[Jimbone]

I use Sonos all over my house... and subscribe to MOG. Almost every CD I own is available for instant streaming so I've not bothered to burn the hundreds of CD's I own. They are all still boxed up somewhere.

Bose is the cats ass, I have the 1500 system on the HTS, and the dock on the patio, unbelievable sound from a lil box

[Duchess]

did you know you can download music from YouTube to your computer?

I do now & spent some time today downloading to my 'puter & tomorrow I will burn my first CD. YeeHaw.

You may have already figured this out, but they will show up as "downloaded files".

Youtube has a music downloader, once I installed that & began downloading it filed all the songs in my music library as well as the pertinent info regarding the song. It works beautifully.

I tried that last night, it won't let me convert video. I tried several different videos and it came up with some message about Google, Inc. and signing a petition to use recording tools.

[QueenBee]

Clang..I had not used it in a while, but just went back to check. It is working OK for me. There is a pink bar about the google thing. Then a white bar which will appear to have a URL already pasted in. Just empty that bar, and paste the URL of the vid you want there, Convert then download

[Clang McFly]

Yeah I put the URL in, hit convert video and get this message:Google Inc. doesn't want you to convert this video.
Please sign a petition to change their mind:
Support third party recording tools for YouTube

Queenbee tech guru. Who knew?

We just use players that we can pop our iPods into.

[Duchess]

Clang, here is a link to download the youtube converter. If you don't trust my link go to cnet & download it from there. This is only the one that converts the video to music, if that's not what you're looking for they have a few to choose from.

[QueenBee]

Thanks for posting that link Duchess...
I know my link is having issues with the Google thing. But, that being said, THIS tech guru does not have issues with most vids I download.

I also do not have an Iphone, IPad, Smart phone or anything. Mine is just a stupid phone that calls and texts

Thanks, Duchess.

I have no reason not to trust your link. Its not like it came from Cracker or username.

[QueenBee]

Duchess..just downloaded your link. Did a couple videos to learn how it works. Seems easy enough. Thanks.

I remember I put a cd player in my 89 corsica (in late 2006), and it played MP3 discs. Being able to leave the files as MP3s, you could fit 80+ songs on one disc. Twas marvelous. Also had the hook-up to play my ipod from the CD deck, while it charged in the glove compartment. I have yet to buy anything fancy for my equinox though.

[Clang McFly]

Converted/Downloaded about 20 or so youtube vids, will try burning them tommorrow. Clang's YouTube Mix #1...

[Eat Shit And Die]
