My music collection is approaching ridiculous proportions. I can remember my days in college when it seemed unreasonable that Matt Guilford, the floor DJ / gospel music aficionado, had two large cases full of CDs. That's more than 500 albums, friends. Today, if I were to burn all my music to CD, I would have 15,000 CDs. And that's not the worst of it.

53 days, 5 hours, 1 minute, and 19 seconds
The total amount of time it would take to play every track, back to back, without interruption

$4,498.50
Total cost of recordable CDs to back up the music files

0.14 miles
The length that these CDs would be if you stacked them on top of each other and laid them down on their side

47
The number of TekNMotion CD binders required to hold all of these CDs

70 days, 15 hours, 25 minutes, 15 seconds
Time required to upload my entire collection to my mp3tunes music locker (which is why I haven't done it)

6 days, 0 hours, 44 minutes, 30 seconds
Time required to download my entire collection across a standard 1.5Mbps cable connection

$17,304.21
Total cost of purchasing all this music on iTunes

$2,621,850,000.00
Total amount for which I would be sued by the RIAA if I were caught sharing this music on a peer-to-peer network
