Re: How many CDs do you own?

I had about 150-200, all in a car carrying case. I brought the case into my office to listen to some at work. Within a couple of hours, it disappeared and I have not seen them since.

So now i have 12. :-/

Well over 800 at my place. I've probably got a couple hundred more at my parents' place.

Around 300-325, and plan to keep it that way -- I now get rid of one CD for every new CD I get.

I remember another thread along these lines a year or so ago... would be interesting to see whether people increased or decreased over that period.

Oh, and antennaball, sorry, that sucks.

I recently had to modify my CD shelves to house another row (meaning another 180). When it's full, it's full. I've been rating my CDs at work to determine if I really want certain ones.

My system:

+1 for great song
+.5 for a good song
Any greatest hits album (x .66)
Of course adjusted for the length of the album

I'm finding that CDs I thought were good, are not in fact any good. Those get tossed.

But you have a good idea, and I will probably get the point where I have to implement something like that pretty soon.

Was up to about a 1000 but they got too cumbersome so I ripped them all & sold them all on half.com. Now have about 10 but who knows where they are.
