Downloaded modernxp's MIDI pack. And it sure is 169k midi files just dumped into an archive, with no organization at all. When I have the folder I extracted it to open, explorer.exe uses 2.5GB of RAM and 25% of an 8-core CPU.
But you can avoid opening the folder by using Everything to search for .mid files! There's good stuff in here, but also a lot of ringtones, and newer MIDIs were apparently made by people unaware that there are instruments besides the default piano.
