For all the cash I spent on music over the last 10 years or so I bet I could buy a verrry nice car indeed... CD's are definitely worth my cash, and apart from the usual bills, rent, groceries etc. it's what I spend most money on I'm sure, just ordered 4 discs again the day before yesterday...
When I was still in school I more than once got myself into financial trouble because of buying too many CD's, but now that I have a job I am fortunate enough to be able to buy pretty much every CD I want, which comes down to about 1-2 a week... Not too long before I reach the 1000.
@ Mousewings: CD's are worth your cash, you won't regret it... and the fear of seeing a CD cheaper elsewhere after you bought it, you'd better stop buying anything at all, cause that's always gonna happen!
