I’ve got a directory like that on my computer, nested under a couple of /old_computer directories. At some point in the early 2000’s I switched to a system of (still not so well named) full albums as hard drive sizes increased and internet connections got faster, leaving the old original directory of one-offs from the dialup days to wither.

My favorite part is the New Music directory where I’d stick new stuff I had obtained until I gave it a listen to it make sure that 1) it’s something I actually wanted to keep and 2) whether there was any quality issues with the encoding. There’s stuff in there with timestamps from like 2002. Yeah, I’m still planning to check that out…someday…
