Default What is the size of your physical and digital music collection?

I do not have a very large collection, but by no means small. About 40-45 Gigs i would say.

[Moderators Notice]

To experiment with ways to work with polls, I've improved on the this thread which had a poll which both underestimated the size of people's collections and used a less optimal way to measure the real size of it - how much music you have - which should be a count of songs or the total amount of music measured in time rather than GBs which the old poll did. For simplicity, I've gone with amount of songs.

Also, since people are posting about their physical collections, let's include that in the topic How many music LPs, CDs, Minidiscs, Casettes and so on do you have?

Cheers,
Tore

Vinyls - about 300
CD's - 2,000 about
Cassettes - 20 about
And all of them are on my computer so that would be more than 80...
