I have around 250.

I find, however, as I've gotten older, I am much more picky. I only buy 1 or 2 per year now. (I'd rather spend my $$ on RPG stuff.)

 

[MonsterMash]

a few hudred CDs and I still have a couple of hundred vinyl albums.

I have around 20-40 CD:s, one of them is Slagsmålsklubben - Fest i Valen, of which only 15 copies exist (and I understand why because the music is not only annoying, but painfully so). I used to be very proud of this: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t...103-7370885-8632656?v=glance&s=music&n=507846 a record I preordered before it was relaesed, which was cool back then. I was, AFAIK, one of the first in Sweden to get this album.

You'd better get a big hard drive! At 192 kbps (which I recommend), that's about 80 meg per CD.
1200*80 = 96,000 megabytes. That's almost 100 gigabytes for MP3s.

Hard drive prices have dropped considerbly lately, you can get a 200GB drive for around $120 (swedish prices). That's $60 for all his CD's, in a more convienient format. It will take weeks to rip all the CD's though. :/

Speaking of big hard drives, a friend of mine found a guy who shared 2 TB (terabytes!) of porn on a P2P-network. Thats insane.

That's more than insane. That's called an addiction.

How many CDs do you own?

Not enough.

What is the pride of your collection?

My Lord of the Rings soundtracks, as well as Great White North - Bob & Doug McKenzie.

I only own about 125-150 CD's, but I have about 8-900 records. LP's. Wax. I think I have more vintage turntables lying around my house that I do all other stereo or video components combined. Geek=me.

Wow, that's not just an avatar, that's really you, isn't it?! Come on, admit it, you're still wearing bell-bottoms, aren't you?
