What do you do when you run out of stuff to listen to on your MP3 player?

I listen to my MP3 player 8 hours per day at work, and have done for the past 3 years, I'm at the stage now where I am totally sick of listening to the 2000 odd tunes I have, its at the point where I actually don't like the songs any more, have you ever got to this stage? and listening to the radio is pure $hit.

Sure there is plenty of music in the world, but its finding something that makes you go WOW and makes you hit repeat, finding decent music is the difference between a shift flying in or every minute seeming like an hour.

Why don't you swap your MP3 player with a friends for a week? Get a few friends and rotate them around..?

That's what I do, I download more songs. I listen to my Ipod quite often - in fact every day - and also listen to the same tunes on my laptop.

I dont listen to music for a few weeks and read books or listen to audiobooks. Then after a few weeks has passed the music sounds fresh again and I can enjoy it.

Well seeing as it would take me 54 DAYS to play all the music on my iPod i don't think there's much chance of that happening.
But it's always nice to pick up something different every now and then , then try pick up a couple of concerts or so they can be judged a bit better by live compared to studio "cleanness".

Doesn't it use AAC files though rather than mp3's?

I just buy more music, when I'm bored of the songs I already have.

Not in all cases, no. I have an iPod and not a single track is AAC. It depends some will be a mixture of both, or will be all AAC or MP3.

Get new artists/albums on your ipod..

for example I am a big fan of Beyonce, Rihanna and Ciara and I got abit tired of their recent albums (Not Rated R as it is just out, but before that) and decide to hunt around the internet to see other similar artists. I came across Keri Hilson and the extremely underrated Amerie and got their albums and loved them..

So maybe try that with an artist or genre you like and it might help
