Collectors.

How many CDs do you have? If you collect vinyl how many of those do you have? Do not include MP3s, theives. Smile


Personally, I have just over 1,300 CDs.

I haven't counted in a while but I'm somewhere between 600 and 700 CDs.

I have less than 100 cassettes left since I've been on an "upgrade to CD" kick lately and about 100 vinyl LPs.

Right before the new year and before cdtracker.com went all NRA, I had a catalog of 1,180-something cd's. I've lost count since then and haven't updated my current records, but I'm probably close to or over 1,200 by now. But don't tell my wife that.

Just checked my spreadsheet.

I have 3,026 CDs. And that's counting titles not actual discs and only factory-made discs.

I also have about 700 vinyl.

I have probably around the 1300-1400 mark...but I recently gleaned out about 500 titles to sell off...

5,783.

I keep everything listed in a spreadsheet, so that number includes CDs, vinyl, a few music DVDs, and demo tapes (I don't include the few regular cassettes I have still). It's mostly CDs, though.

Thats about how much I have. I wish, I WISH I had so much more but that is my fault for all the junk I've spent my money on in the past. Which, is the main reason I am in so much debt. All you young dudes out there, stay away from credit cards and lottery tickets-they are EVIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I blame Ult and Kmorg. Their website reviews have cost me a fortune in cd purchases.

I blame you guys! I bought over 1,000 CDs last year! If it weren't for Scott and his stinkin' site I'd never have discovered lala (and then SwapaCD) and this forum. My house is going to be foreclosed on because of you guys! Sad

Me too! Between those places and the CMR and here I've gone nuts the last 2 1/2 years. However, as you will soon see "NUTS" for me is quite tame for you's guys.


About 350 cds
About 55 cassettes
15 LPs and about 30 singles on Vinyl

I'm a lightweight and I'm trying to slow down. I think 30 new cds a year should be just about right from now on.

About 900 to 1,000 cds, I'd guess. I also still have about 400
cassettes and around 100 vinyls, but some of those are duplicated
titles.

Around 4,000 CD's. I really went nuts buying EVERYTHING remotely heavy from the 70's for a couple of years, until it felt like an addiction. I've really tapered off now, but I miss the excitement of waiting for packages all the time.

That really is part of the fun of buying for me too. It was cool when I came home today and had 3 packages waiting in the mailbox.

That's big!! I get mad when there's no music in the mail.

But for me it start to feel like and addiction. Plus, I like having cds in rotation and getting to know them well. I can't do that with so many cds. My knew personal policy will allow me to do so.

I think mine has dipped below 10000. But I just picked up a couple hundred last week, so maybe not.

You're selling them all, right? Or are you just getting rid of the excess?
