I've never owned a vinyl record or player in my life. I can't recall ever listening to one either. CDs did me just fine.
I have around 400-500 CDs stored in cases. I just started downloading music a year ago, and so far 46G worth.

Yeah that's my thing. Even with a "small" collection, there's not enough time to listen to it and really comprehend it. Granted, many people here may be older than me and have been listening to music a lot longer than I've been alive haha. In any event these huge amounts of music are pretty cool. My music collection is always expanding and growing.

I have around 150 CD's that I've been collecting for years now as well as 50 or so vinyl that I've been collecting since last year. On my laptop I have 140 GBs of music. It's likely that 10% of that music is unreleased material I've recorded over the years.

I used to have about 300 vinyl albums, now I have the same number of cds that Frownland has - of which about 50 are "real" and 100 have been burned at little personal cost. In mp3 format I have 30 GB, mostly acquired since the fateful day when I joined MB. ( I notice you have a pretty good collection too, Psy-Fi; 10 times as many mp3s as me, for instance!)

Quality not quantity always. I have around 800 cd's and another 3000 albums on mp3 but I am always looking to downsizing. There is nothing worse than putting an album on and not knowing what your fave track is or what it sounds like in some cases.
Ideally I would love to just have 100 cd's chock full of the finest music known to man but there just isn't enough time to sift through it all.
