I have a program called Music Collector, so I've been adding the CDs and LPs to the list when I come home with them. It's easy to use, since when I started using it I didn't have many CDs to put in, and adding them gradually was easy. It's kind of neat to have a list of your music with album covers and tracks and everything in one place. |

About 700 cd's (rock, classic rock, prog rock and metal) with plans to ultimately have a small shop size cd catalogue like some of the people here with 2000-4000 cd's. (As I am a book fanatic as well, I split my purchases between cd's and books, and it is very difficult to choose sometimes). Oh, and more than 60 GB of mp3 which accounts for more albums than I jave in cd format, which I slowly purchase, since I find there is nothing like the original and real stuff you can touch with your hands and put in your cd player. ------------- http://hangingsounds.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow - Hanging Sounds http://www.progarchives.com/ProgRockShopping.asp" rel="nofollow - PA Index of prog music vendors |
