How many Cd's do you own?

[Erik]

Ah... Also curious how you make the distinction between "EP" "MCD" and "CD-Single"

 

[spaffe]

In my defense I'll say that I made those categorization a pretty long time ago and now it's too much of a hassle to change it all ;P but it's something along the lines of:

EP = 7"
MCD = mini CD
CD-single = hehe this one is pretty whimsical, I only have two (Lake of Tears - Socrersesese and Blind Guardian - AttWS) but yeah, perhaps they ought to be listed as MCDs

 

[Erik]

Oh really, well I thought EP was different from 7" seeing as you also have one record listed as a 7"

 

[spaffe]

You nitpicker you, I'll go change it then

~725 CDs, and I think I have like 80 tapes in a box somewhere. Anyone want some old thrash tapes for cheap?

[Erik]

Me too!

Hell if i had known about 1 ½ - 2 years ago i would have sent 400+ cassettes to you guys although all of it wasn't thrash but a good portion of it was. I ended up leaving most behind moving/giving them away.

Nemas problemas, I'll just drop it of when I pick up the tapes... You'll notice a few years ago

Hell yeahs.

 

[Ellestin]

367, crapless collection!

 

[jimbobhickville]

wow, I didn't expect 3 interested parties. Maybe I'll have to start a bidding war J/K

I will try to put together a list of what I've got so y'all can decide what you think it's worth. I'll just make a new thread at that point.

I have 100+/- albums collected over thirty years. As others, it’s a crapless collection. Though I am not to be relied upon for good judgement in terms of crap/gems. There is also no room for anything that is just "good". Nor anything that belongs in a collection "just because". You know, as advertised: "every metal collection must include this album." That sort of thing.

At one point I did have about twice as many albums. I lost them in an accident. Which is a polite way of saying I burned the house down and everything in it.

When it came time to replace them, I thought about which ones I was really missing. Wasn’t missing it? Didn’t need it.

Thing is, lots of those albums are very very very very good

 

[NAD]

I actually get most of my non-metal albums that way, like if the mainstream press hails an album as classic for years and years I'll check it out.

Metal albums I trust small scale stuff, like if 10 dudes I trust say ESSENTIAL I'll check it out.

 

[Ayeka]

When it came time to replace them, I thought about which ones I was really missing. Wasn’t missing it? Didn’t need it.

If that happened to me I'd probably only replace about a dozen albums but then every other day I'd think "Ooooh I feel listening to xxx" and then remember it was destroyed and then continue ad infinitum for all the random songs I've ever heard...

 

[Saint Trauma]

Sure. Point was holding onto these albums not because one actually likes them, but rather because others have deemed it a requirement for the metal collection.

 

[IOfTheStorm]

A little more than 650. And for sure 100 written cassetes.
