Did everyone toss their hard drives or whatever that they had ripped and/or downloaded music?

Luckily, Google Play allowing uploaded mp3s gave me a 3rd copy of basically my whole hard drive of music, so the soundtracks, Frankie's badass mid-90s R&B album, random 90s remixes, anad that type of stuff is covered as well as my CD collection and dl'ing game would allow.

I think I have everything posted. 213 (both the leak and the released album), Murder was the case (need to listen to that), Pain, Cartoons and Cereal, multiple different Jay Elec mixtapes...all of that type of stuff.

I'm having a hard time with some of the 2010 - 2015-ish mixtapes. During that time, I was starting to stream more and rip less. Before that? Yeah, I pretty much have all of that stuff from when I was buying physical copies and ripping them to the drive of jams.
