- World's Largest iTunes Library?
Filed under: Cult of Mac, iTunes
Glen Wolsey has an interview up with Will Friedwald, the self-proclaimed owner of the world's largest iTunes collection, which he has even given a name: "The Matrix." Friedwald is apparently a music writer for the New York Sun, and his main library contains over 170,000 tracks (849GB). He also has a couple of "sub-libraries," which, if all added together, would bring the total to around 1200GB. The two iTunes database files on the main library are themselves each over 250MB.
Unsurprisingly, Friedwald claims that iTunes is very slow when running his 800GB library on a single processor Power Mac G5, taking up to three or four minutes to bring the "Get Info" window up on a selected track. So this got me wondering. What kind of iTunes library do you have, dear TUAW reader? Can you challenge Mr. Friedwald?(My main library is a measly 21.5GB).

Filed under: Cool tools, Hacks, Tips and tricks, Developer
A while back we posted on the recently released book, TextMate: Power Editing for the Mac. Now the author of that tome, James Edward Gray II, offers a preview of the kind of stuff you'll find in his book in an article over at MacDevCenter.
Gray shows you how to customize TextMate by creating a bundle that turns it into a RPN calculator (the heavy lifting is done behind the scenes with Ruby). Bundles offer some amazing extensions of TextMate's core functionality, such as the BlogMate blogging plug-in we recently mentioned. If you've been curious about how all that cool TextMate bundle voodoo works (or you want a preview of the book), check out the the tutorial.Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments
