Random Facts About My iTunes Library

(Or, is there such a thing as too much Kylie?)

The following facts and statistics were generated by a website called the iTunes Registry. You upload a file of your iTunes library and it analyzes it for you. So, presented here for my amusement and yours, are some random facts about my iTunes library...
  • Most Played Track: "Shocked" by Kylie Minogue

  • Most Played Album: Kylie Minogue's "Greatest Hits 87-97"

  • Most Played Artist: Kylie Minogue

  • Newest Track: "Smile" by Lily Allen (last week's free download from the iTunes Store)

  • Least Recently Played: "I Wouldn't Normally Do This Kind Of Thing" by Pet Shop Boys (does not include songs in my library that have never been played)

  • Average number of Albums per Artist: 1.84

  • Average number of Tracks per Artist: 9.46

  • Average number of Tracks per Album: 5.15
iTunes Registry is pretty cool -- but not perfect. For example, it says I have 6,196 tracks in my library, when iTunes itself says there are 6,287 items. And iTunes Registry says the longest track in my library is one called "More More More." I do have a song in my library called "More, More, More" by Bananarama, but it's only about 3 minutes long. And I have a song in my library called "I'm A Man" by Macho that's over 17 minutes long, which really is the longest, but somehow iTunes Registry missed it.

Bugs are to be expected since iTunes Registry is still in beta form. But even with the bugs I like this site and will continue to upload my library data to it.
