How big is your...

[ackers]

Over 2gb in mp3 (excluding flac files as they are huge).

I have 1.29gb in music from just one band. Feeder of course!

 

[Daois]

I have about 127GB of music.
I used to be really into music while I was in college, so I would always buy/download/borrow from friends CDs and rip them to my computer.

My 80GB iPod only has about 28GB used space on it, but that stays in my car hooked to the stereo on random.. and my iPod touch has even less music on it, but it's mostly what I like since I keep that with me all the time.

Only 390mb

I needs more music.

 

[Salamantis]

I'm VERY picky about music, as in there's a lot of genres I don't listen to that are popular (rock, metal, pop, rap, etc). I hate that, since it ruins my music experience not being able to listen to what others listen and being called a reject once again for having different and weird music tastes.

on topic, around 5.6GB

 

[Rock Raiyu]

100GB of course. I am a music man.

Why is everyone assuming that anything under 10 gigs is a small music collection?
People with 600gig collections probably don't even listen to 5% of it. A lot of these people are those who download whole albums just to get one song.

On-topic: The most I ever had was about 11gigs but that got wiped a while back and now I've got about 8 gigs. Most of which are OST's to games and animes.

i'm super picky about my music collection, i only have about 2gb. i never understood the point of having like 10000 songs on ur mp3 player, pretty pointless.

 

[R2DJ]

5.73 GB.

I still have to rip about 2 dozens of disc.

I bet the people here who have a really big music collections has albums included in their collection but they only listen to the most popular songs in it i.e. You have an album that has 17 songs but you only listen to 4 of those songs because they are the most well-known ones.

Well I got a couple of those albums and I only listen to 10 out of 24 of them.

 

[layzieyez]

About 250GB. I own a lot of CD's (I used to DJ a pirate radio station in college) and my friends and I would have Senuti parties where we'd dump the contents of each others' ipods and go "shopping" for music. Also, whenever I would be underway on the ship, I'd borrow friends' CD folders and rip the contents while working to my laptop. I've got a little of everything with no overlapping songs. A lot of obscure and out of print music that I'm very proud of. And all of it is catalogged properly and I have a backup drive with the same contents just in case the one I'm currently using fails.

 

[Sappoide]

My music collection reaches almost 7GB and some of it is composed by OST from various VG (I got the OSTs of the two chapters of Ouendan!

)

 

[omegableach]

...Music collection?

Mine is nearing 4GB's.

LOl, I almost regretted clicking on this thread "how big is your" and you know the rest

I keep deleting my songs so I have maybe around 512mb

 

[jaxxster]

75.7 gig

 

[Satangel]

5.64 GB.

My brother has 40 GB, and he listens to it all.

 

[CockroachMan]

Around 45GB..

 

[enarky]

Around 100 GByte, scattered over three HDDs. I'm pretty picky with what goes into my collection, all of it is MP3 in V0, V2, APX and APS quality, only CBR I tolerate are scene rips from before 2004 and "old" rips from before I found out how to encode good quality MP3s (but they get replaced one by one, too). What's non-scene and coming from "untrusted" sources was checked for transcodes.

I'm also quite proud that I've currently listened to ~95% of my collection, keeping track with Amarok & last.fm. What I don't like has to go, but I usually only download stuff that I read about beforehand, so the signal to noise ratio of my downloads is pretty good.

Did I mention that I like listening to music?

[EDIT]
Just calculated the complete size and... ahem, it has grown quite a bit since I did that last time. Currently I have 142 GByte of MP3s on my HDDs.

 

[Upperleft]

2.17 GB
and i consider myself a Music-fan

(no srsly, 30 GB o_o?)

 

[Mr. Waffle]

2,42GB

And I only listen to 168mb

Ah, now I see why it's 2.42GB, my old music collection where I never listen to from my MP3 backup is in the music folder =)

 

[Anakir]

I have 6gb of music files. I actually listen to all, if not, majority of them. I load it all on my mp4 player and put it on shuffle. I hardly change the song that's on, unless I just don't feel like listening to it on that certain day.

I don't delete because I may get addicted to my old songs someday again.

 

[Veristical Blaze]

Around the 50 gig i listen too much music

 

[moozxy]

17~gb
