How big is your record collection?

I'm still pretty young and my cd/lp collection is not all that big yet, I have about 200 CDs, about 10 CD singles, 6 LPs (all Prince... yea I know...I need to get me more of these lol ) and 1 LP single. So anyway I'd like to know how many records do y'all older cats own cool I mean surely tA and vain etc etc have huge record collections. NOTE: This thread is not only for the older folks, even though I'd especially like to hear about their collections. Feel free to participate y'all thumbs up!

Yeah, I have thousands of records--mostly 12" singles. I could never resist a good remix.

I am also working on building up my collection, but amassing a vast amount of albums will take some time. Especially since I'm pretty much only interested in purchasing funk & soul albums... yes... I'm a music snob lol

I probably could DJ, but I don't. I take over at house parties sometimes.

Records -- Approx. 75-80

Cassettes -- Approx 70 left (conversions to MP3's resulted in about 100 getting sent to Goodwill

CDs -- I've slowed my purchasing patterns quite a bit, so I'm probably up to about 700. Had I kept up the pace I had a few years back, the number would be double.

This doesn't include iTunes tracks, mix CDs and LPs at my folks' house that I haven't reclaimed.

Damn, I can't compete with you guys. Maybe 500 CD's, 40 gigs of downloads, and few hundred vinyl albums (although the vinyl is growing at a fast clip).

This is just a guess cause I'm not going to go count all that shit

750 cds
250 tapes
300 albums
400 12 inch singles
150 45s

Now my ex wife, she was a record store manager for 12 years and easily made me look like someone who just started buying music
