I've had this problem for quite some time, but I'm finally coming out with it: I have an addiction to pearljambootlegs.org. It's the reason I have over 2500 PJ songs on my iPod. I just finished downloading five first US leg shows of the Binaural Tour. I listen to one show, I need to get another. Anyone else have this problem?
Shows: 6.27.08 Hartford, CT/5.15.10 Hartford, CT/6.18.2011 Hartford, CT (EV Solo)/10.19.13 Brooklyn/10.25.13 Hartford

    I have the 160GB iPod. It's full. 9817 Pearl Jam songs. That's not even counting the EV albums or anything else that's not just Pearl Jam. All the officially released bootlegs, albums, and a few of the really good non-official boots pre-2000.

    Oh, and I fail to see the problem you're trying to describe.

    My problem isn't downloading the boots, its buying them. 3 turned up yesterday, 4 more will get delivered this week and 2 arrived last week. The boots are pretty much the only thing I'm listening to at the moment!

    I'm watching Black Crowes tomorrow night and I've been wanting to listen the their records the past few weeks again but instead I just keep listening to PJ boots!!!

    thats small fry

    True. I'm only @ 8+ TB's worth of dedicated Pearl Jam. I know a few that are over 10+ TB's worth of PJ.
    I've been slacking lately. :oops:

    I had collected hundreds of shows in mp3 format...and then I discovered FLAC. Now I have two collections and two spreadsheets to keep track of them. Yes, I might have a problem. :lol:

    What's the preference to FLAC vs .mp3...I understand it is better quality, but substantially more storage capacity needed...Im guessing a maybe 3:1 ratio in size. Anything else I am missing. Is the sound THAT much better?!

    From the guy who runs the website. Also, FLAC is superior to MP3 as far as sound is concerned. I'm in the painful process of getting rid of all my MP3's and replacing them with FLAC. You just need the space to store the files, but an external TB hard drive fixes that problem. If you have an Android phone, the app PowerAmp plays FLAC files, which is HUGE. Best music player for a phone......ever.

    "Hi there,

    in the next couple of days / weeks there will be limited access to the site. I'm transfering the whole stuff to a new server which will take some time.

    After that maybe the download button will be back.
    Or maybe I'm starting something completely new ... will see"

    ICloud is coming soon, I ran out of room as well but am looking, google and amazon have them now, but wait for Apple, it will be better and faster as all their stuff is.
