About 50%. Probably.

This is accurate for me as well.

Sounds about right for me, too.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I think I'd do well on a "Name That Beatles Tune" type of show.  Been exposed to them since the cradle.
I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there.....

Hard too calculate, My guess is under 50%. 
I heard Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt Pepper, Abbey Road and a lot of hit singles.

I looked back at the songs and found I've heard just over half, so I went for 75% approx Smile

I've heard all studio albums plus some compilations (there are some songs that are not on the studio albums). 
Is that 90s Anthology worth listening too? I've heard those two new songs.

Just about, if you're a Beatle maniac. I have to say it's mainly for historical interest, I just made a compilation of the best tracks and listen to that from time to time. If you haven't heard the full version of "You Know My Name" or "What's the New Mary Jane" then you should probably get them, although personally I'd skip the earliest one.

What kind of Beatle freak would I be if it wasn't 100% ? I may not own all the compilations, etc. but it is all familiar to me.

100 % not counting the years with the live bootlegs - such as Three Cool Cats. A lot of those obscure things are not worth hearing anyway.

Today i saw the new packaging for classic Sgt pepper, Abbey Rd, 1, and Revolver. these are newly remastered with a booklet, and unreleased photos and CD ROM bonus stuff. Has anyone got these and are these CDs that much different than the previous CD releases? Just curious.

101%.

Heard a few new songs in my dreams. Gosh, they were sooo excellent. You've got something to look forward to!

Only wished I could remember those songs LOL

50% or less.I know they have their place in rock history but I'm not a huge fan.I have no Beatles in my collection.The only Beatles song i sorta like is Happiness Is A Warm Gun.

I've heard all the studio albums and the "Past Masters" compilations. I've heard a little bit of the Anthology stuff but not a lot.

I clicked 100% but I wonder if I should have clicked 90% instead.

The only thing I know for sure is that its not 100% . I went for 90% option but on second thoughts its probably 75%.
