Poll: How big is your CD collection ?

37 replies

Inspired by a post in the Beosound 5 forum about its capcity to store 1,000 CDs in lossless mode, I thought we could ask how many CDs Beoworlders have in their collection ...

... in my case, 600 CDs at this point in time (bought 7 today!)

I have about 1500 CDs, increasing month by month...

Last time I counted: about 400.

Today: I guess about 500

I would say roughly 700. With some 30 unoppened, and 200 that I have only played once. Sounds like I need a BS5 to rediscover my collection.

Abba & The Vienna Orchestra conducted by Herbert Von Karajan! Now that would have been a great gig.

I love their song 'The Day Before You Came'. Think it has a quality matched only by 'The Winner Takes it All'.

The video for ' The Day....' is particularly significant as it portrays a picture of a profound change in their mood and their relationship with each other-

And by the way, I always fancied Frida!

I got a whopping 30! hahaha. Digital Era :)

Actually I've no idea. My guess is about 200 or so.

About 500-550 CDs / nearly 6000 songs on my BM5 - but no ABBA.🙂

Apprx 1800 easily accessible and another apprx 2000 stored away. About 5-10% are CDmaxi'es.
Plus about 800 LP's, 400 12" maxies (from my mobile discoteque days) and 1400 45's.

Complete ABBA catalogue.  😳
