I've got about 6,000 and maybe about a thousand more that aren't prog. I have no Mariah Carey or Céline Dion. I do have about 25 Elvis albums though.

Around 500 CDs out of which I'd say 75% are prog.
Then there are the vinyls which I do not listen to anymore for years, most of the ones I love the most I have also on CD but I guess there must be another 100 or so which I do not have on CD.

Prog Archive standards of progressive are so lenient I wouldn't normally use their criteria. Every album I own with exception to about 20 country/folk albums, and 50 or so various orchestral recordings.
I sell my albums if they're not rare or brilliant; so I may have had in my hands at one point or another around 3 thousand, because i will buy about 5 or 6 albums a week and sell most of them back. I've kept a lot - so in my house I probably have about 500. In those 500 are my Anglagards, Bancos, Return to Forever, HoyryKone, Sloche albums - things either hard to find or are brilliant. Proudly on the mantle is the original EP print of Anglagard - Hybris. My point is...size doesn't count - especially if you have a bunch of Opeth / Porcupine Tree/ Devin Townsend nonsense cluttering your shelves....content does.

Exactly 332 out of the 576 CD's I own are on ProgArchives. (Don't think I counted them. I just keep a data base of my cd's on my computer, ordered by year, band, category, and country, so it's easy to know the number...and yes, I know that it is super nerd...but what can I say? At the end of this year, if everything works out the way I hope to, I will get my degree as an accountant, so there's the answer.)

At least a thousand under the prog categories, which is most of my collection. Maybe another 500 or so outside of that. Haven't counted in a while, and I'm not feeling that obsessive at the moment.
