Question Which is larger: Your CD or DVD collections?

Just interested (or nosey!).

My CDs = 800-900 (haven't done an accurate count in a while).

My DVDs = 200 ... or thereabouts.

CD collection has shrunk somewhat as I have sold off a number of albums that I just didnt listen to. Combined with vinyl I have about 900 albums and around 150 DVDs

DVDs getting close to CD's already! ...........although that does include transfers from VHS to DVD. Vinyl outnumbers CD/SACD/DVD-A/V all together!

Like Karkus, I've been having a CD/Vinyl purge of late to get rid of stuff I never play and are never likely too again. This has brought the CDs down to a closer parity with DVD.

Hmmm Vinyl collection easily the largest which includes an estimate of 400 singles, 190 albums.

CD's, actually not far behind Vinyl albums at 140 (not bad for 5 years interest )

SACD: A solitary 1 and can't be played lol!

DVD-A: A massive 2

DVD: Approx 200 which surprises me Anyone want a few?

About 200 CDs and only 68 DVDs.

I've pretty much finished my DVD collection now - I certainly have no intention of reaching 3 figures as I just don't watch enough movies. I suspect that I'll continue buying weekly CDs forever though.

I had no intention of buying a DVD player as I've never been that bothered with missing a film on TV. I could never understand how my mate had seen so many films.... he'd always say when a film came on TV ..... *seen that* and I never had! Guess I must be making up for lost time, or justyfing my initial impulse buy

Hmm- 400 CD's ish. Its hard to tell where my collection ends and the GF's starts.
>100 Pieces of vinyl- exact number unknown.
Approx 450 DVD's- again some mine some hers.
A big bucket of WMA's and MP3's across various drives and there are still minidiscs (about 150) lying around as well.

I used to think I had a fair number of albums and then I came across this guy who was wanting to do a bit of an upgrade on his HiFI..........my mate who ran the shop said I should go round and see this guys HiFi system as it had a massive stack of Naim 135s and other items of wonderment. Of course I got around to giving it the old 'well its OK having this equipment but what good is it without records' at which point he proceeded to show me the top floor of his house which was racked out floor to ceiling with multiple shelves (christ knows how the floor supported it all) and then said that he had to keep the rest in the garage due to lack of space...............have you ever thought, I didnt realise that there actually was as many records as that ?
