I organized my computerized music library by country and did the math. On iTunes I put the bands' respective country in the "Grouping" category to expediate the process.

Japan 1.5%
UK 5%
US 38.5%
Finland 5%
Germany 5%
France 2%
Norway 15%
The Netherlands 2%
Poland 2%
Australia 1.5%
Italy 1.5%
Canada 1%
Other: 3% bands with less than 1% (denmark, Ukraine, Belgium, Brazil, South Korea, Russia, Singapore)

12.9 gigs on itunes

I'm gonna do countries, but I can guess Swededn and Norway are in first

 

[Zack]

I have a 14 gig computer, so in reality I have way more than 7 gigs of music. It's just that I can't fit anymore on my computer.

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

They sell 14 gig computers? What a ripoff.

How in the fuck does your pc still work? 14 gig HD? Build yourself a new one, you can get a good 160gig for pretty cheap.

The shitbox I owned before this one only held 6 gigs.

 

[King Richard]

LOL

That's why you DO NOT buy manufactured pc's. Complete shit.

Finland gets really, really high on these considering it has what... 5 million people total?

You don't need one; if your turntable has some kind of output (headphone jack, aux out, whatever), you can run that into the sound card on your comp; much easier than doing it via USB, maybe a bit less in terms of quality, but still.

 

[Demilich]

Yeah

Also consider that Sweden only has 9 million

Norway 4,6

Hmm, I never knew that! I find Norway/Finland especially humourous because my home city of Toronto boasts a population of at least 4.5 million in the greater metropolitan area.

 

[Zephyrus]

Erik, are you talking to yourself again...

 

[Demilich]

Zephyrus, don't questions usually have some kind of symbol following them? Oh wait...

 

[Zephyrus]

OK, my collection has nearly doubled in size, time for an update.

Sweden: 24%
Norway: 22%
USA: 14%
Great Britain: 12%
Germany: 5%
Poland: 5%
Austria: 2%
Finland: 2%
Switzerland: 2%
Other: 12% (Canada, Czech Republic, France, Greece, Italy, Netherlands)
