How large is your music collection?

Nothing outrageous - roughly 700 CD's and 700 LP's. Back in 2000-2001, I used a dictaphone to record title, catalog number, and performer for each title I owned, and had a secretary type it up, the resulting typed list allowing easy reference to available titles. Unfortunately, I didn't maintain the list, and even though I generally have my CD's and LP's arranged alphabetically, it would be a pain to update. I need to update it, as the list caused much better rotation (and was not cheap to have typed).

It will be interesting to see if the equipment geeks who post about equipment topics on this forum appear in this thread - not too many have shown so far.

600 LP's
100 CD's

About 7000 LP's, 600 CD's, 1500 DVD's & around 50 SACD/DVDA.
I purchase mostly vinyl as you can tell and I mainly collect Rock. I have started to collect some Jazz, Blues & Classical though and continue to purchase them as my taste in music changes. I feel if I wait as I did when I did not listen to the latter music at all I may not be able to afford them. I have noticed that more Jazz, Blues & Classical original and reissues releases go up in price more than Rock. Some as much as 10 times their original cost when they are out of print. Sending some cash now will save me lots later or make me lots at a later date. I also purchase dups trying to find the best recording I can find if I am not impressed with what I have.
I have lots of fun hunting through record stores, thrift shops and flea markets. I don't think I will be able to listen to all I have in my life time. I will try though when I retire.

I've long ago thinned down my LP's to the essential and these are now more for occasional reference than anything else (my analogue system is in the closet just now). Haven't done this with digital recordings which were accumulated when my decisions were more (not a lot, just more and occasionally better) informed and selective in the first place. Most recordings are classical or jazz.

5000 +/- CD's
450 LP's

Buying has really slowed down over the past couple of years.

My CD collection is static and does not grow or change much. Occasionally something will come around that is new that I really want like the new Robin Trower or maybe the new Beatles box set; however, those instances are few. Most new CDs are either remasters that have superior sonic qualities or Best Of compilations from artist that I like enough to own a compilation but not a complete library.

Either way, I have just about every CD that I've ever wanted and several compilation CDs that bring back memories.

I've got 200 LPs from a few years ago when I got back into vinyl and purchased a turntable. The turntable, TT preamp, and vinyl gather dust and they may go by the wayside. Vinyl is so hard to maintain.
