in my boredom w/ T3 college LAN, i've decided...create the best collection of songs. and anandtech can help with suggestions.

Here are my constraints:
1) to keep mp3 library weeded of crap, no more than 20GB total of songs. (i already have this amount, but have crap to delete)
2) a band/singer must have at least 5 *very good* songs to be considered
3) if the band has a greatest hits CD, i'll just get that
4) if a band is AMAAAAZING i'll get every studio song, and some acoustics (if available)
5) if the band is RADIOHEAD i will get every recording ever!!

so what would you like to see? P.S. - FTP later ;)

EDIT: too avoid repeats, i'll tell you what i have a lot of (10+ songs)
=======================================================

PAX 217 - Twoseventeen. Best songs on that album are:

A.M.
Check 217
Forevermind
No Place Like Home
Until The Sun

BTW: I guess I would compare them most with maybe 311 but better. Not many people heard of them.
