What would be in my IPOD if I had one:

About five years ago technology changed and I began my Mp3 collection – my first musical obsession became retro pop music cuz that was the only good music available to download other than the days pop shit – as more shit became available, I went on to explore and download everything – I spent hours of insomniac nights downloading -

So about six months ago - five years later of downloading music - I had a nice collection of music – Six months ago my computer crashed and I lost it all.
