Was using WinAmp tonight after years of Media Player and iTunes use. WinAmp is so old school I feel like I should also launch PowWow and the Fish Tank Screen Saver just to feel pre-21st century.
So I’m sitting there with my 410 artists freshly scanned into the WinAmp media library (no good visual browser yet) and wanted to play an artist I wouldn’t be tired of in 10 minutes. While scrolling, I realized each artist had a column for total track count. Assuming that your time-tested artists put out more then two albums, you’d keep buying them, and likely have a large collection of songs by them… so one might say your favorite artists are those you have the most music by. One-click sort and this is what I get (reminder this is a combo of my music and the Wife’s, so no bustin’ on DMB or Mayer).
- The Prodigy
- Nine Inch Nails
- Dave Matthews Band
- Shaman’s Harvest
- Astral Projection
- ATB
- Incubus
- John Mayer
- Foo Fighters
- Led Zeppelin
- Santana
Sounds about right. I’ll start playing from the top, problem solved.
