UK easily (England, Scotland and Ireland have produced insane amounts of great music).
The US and Australia then (I am Aussie so that comes as no surprise) but I also really like African music.

The UK by a long shot. I grew up on a steady diet of British New Wave bands in the late 70s-early 80s and have continued with the Brit bands ever since.
I also like listening to British radio stations online - even "general interest" stations, like the old Virgin FM - were far closer to my tastes than almost any station I've ever heard in America. Also, whenever there's a "100 Best Bands" or "100 Best Songs" poll, I always agree more with a British list than an American one.
I guess I was just born in the wrong country, musically speaking.

I was listening to some songs the other day and I realized that despite my favorite band Rush being from Canada and liking numerous American (and a surprisingly high number of Australian bands and artists), a large percentage of the bands that I like are British despite being 100% born and bred American. Any one country strongly represented in your collection?
