How large are our record collections?
How large are our record collections?
I know not everyone counts this sort of thing, but approximately how many CD's (and LP's, for those of us who still keep them) do we have?
I have just under 500 CD's (not including burned CD-R's, which would put me well over 500), and I probably have about 400 LP's.
Do I listen to them all? Gosh, no, but I do listen to a surprisingly large amount of them.

This morning you've got time for a hot, home-cooked breakfast! Delicious and piping hot in only 3 microwave minutes.

2000+ CDs, I guess. Since I got Broadband I'm "trying out" 2 to 3 albums per day. I also plan on buying a huge extenal hard drive and swapping MP3/AAC libraries with some pals. Gotta love music.
On a not wholly unrelated note, I seem to have bought more DVDs than CDs so far this year.

I hope so too. I spend so much money in record stores and on concert tickets that I really don't feel that guilty about it.Otis Westinghouse wrote:10 inches.
PS Dr J, are the Irish authorities too busy putting out fags to worry about large-scale file-sharing? I hope so!
Plus I think the smoking ban is kickass. It's so odd to see people nipping out for a fag.

Back to the question....
Not nearly enough. Hopefully I'll be inheriting somewhere around 500 CD's, and 400 LP's before too longBlueChair wrote:approximately how many CD's (and LP's, for those of us who still keep them) do we have?

I have about:
850 cds
100 burned cds
50 cassettes
and about 1500-2000 live bootleg cds of many bands
...and I am only 18

I wish that I could push a button
And talk in the past and not the present tense
And watch this hurtin' feeling disappear
Like it was common sense
It was a fine idea at the time
Now it's a brilliant mistake

Currently I probably have somewhere in the order of 600 CDs and a similar number of LPs. However, very soon I will be purchasing a cheap turntable with built in pre-amp and transferring my entire vinyl collection onto my PC's hard-disk drive, after which I will sell off the LPs and free up a lot of garage space.
DVD collecting seems to have taken up most of my dollars these days... my collection now being over the 700 mark.

Its not that. I have been getting them for my birthday since I was 10 and I have a part time job with nothing to spend my money on except music related stuff.BlueChair wrote:Rich boyBrilliantMistake45 wrote:I have about:
