My library is long gone, but let's do some math instead. A CD can hold 700 MB of data. 1 TB will hold 1428 full CD images. Of course, not all albums fill the whole CD, so it'll be even more once the audio is extracted to uncompressed audio files. That's already way more albums than I listen to on Spotify. Then add some compression: my rule of thumb is 10x for mp3 and 2x for flac, but that may be a bit optimistic. Even assuming a low compression ratio of 1.5x, that leaves us with more than 2100 full albums. I don't think I will ever listen to that much different music. And Spotify doesn't even have the good version of my favorite Robyn album, and Kyle Gass Band only just reappeared after missing for months. Maybe I should start a collection, too.
