I've only actually bought a couple cds in my life, I was raised in a secular-influence-intolerant environment so there are many indulgences I've never made a habit of.

At this point, I would say that I have around 400 or so....hey, what can I say? It's one of only a few indulgences.

I regard Cd's as ' Tools of the trade ', I think that my progress was impeded in the early years, by not having the right music to study

I'd say about 350 if i include those big round things with the little hole in the middle.

For the same reason Hammurabi mentioned, I own about 2 or 3 CD's.

If you count double albums as 2 CDs and individual CDs of box sets, I have 141.

I could name 'em all if you like, I have nothing better to do.

I...don't...know. More than 24, that's all I know. Because I filled up my 24 CD case and had to buy a new case, so.

Aren't CD's kinda going the way of the record album by now?
I mean, I've got several hundred CD's and LP's but after backing them up to hard disk or MP3, I rarely use them.
I never buy CD's now unless I really need the audiophile quality of .wav files. It's easier to just download the album or pick selected songs. [so you don't get stuck with an entire album of crappy songs just for one good tune]
Hey you kids! Get outta that Jello tree!! :mad:

I prolly have around 200. I'd have more, but the times I would have bought CDs most (when I was a student) I was broke.

I've loaded all of them onto a hard drive and set my house up wirelessly so that my computer is my main source of music piped to any room in the house.

The space for all those cd's was killing me!

I had about 1000 vinyl LP's until I moved from Ottawa to Calgary back in 2000. I was in the process of replacing easily-damaged LP records with CD's, so I left most of them behind. I only have about 300 now. Plus about 600 CD's. :o

People say that I'm a compulsive second-hand-CD buyer, but still, I only have about 50-60 legit CDs. The rest are burned CDs of albums that I've borrowed from friends, or songs that I've downloaded off the internet. There's also my parents' record collection, which holds the family copy of Dark Side of the Moon (one of my most prized possessions, and it's not even mine :eek: ).

I probably have about 50 or so. I would hav emore but i use I-tunes a lot and probably have 3 or more CDs worth of music stored there.

Also i took advantage of the BMG offer. So all i have to do is buy one CD and i get like 7 or 8 free. They also have buy one get two free offers so i guess the final tally could be close to 50.

I'm a compulsive CD buyer... period... I probably have 150+ CDs...

I also use Imesh... my CD collection on my computer tallies it at 4000+ songs... which if the average CD has 12 songs... would come out to be about 334 CD's...................... Wow............ I guess I never realized that I had that much music......................... Oh well... I'm proud of my collection.

I have 2 full 48 diskholders and another half full. I know I have another 20 that are still wondering in their cases. So around 140. Like Blueraddish said, I loaded a lot of mine onto my harddrive and onto my Ipod.
