Classical, Jazz, or Rock?

Pink Floyd has finally come out on SACD, The Stones a couple months back.

For some reason the record companies believe all audiophiles listen to Classical music exclusively. When they launch a new Audiophile format like SACD, the think all the people who buy these high-end rigs are Classical music lovers.

My question is, of these three, Classical, Jazz, or Rock?
In your collections, which is the Dominant choice, which one do you own the most recordings in.

Thanks for you comments and input.

You guys might wanna' try getting in touch w/ Vince McMahon. Might be a really good schtick for the WWF (or is it WWE now?).
Started out w/ Hendrix, Who, Cream, Stones... Got hooked. Got into just about any other mind altering stuff I could find. Rehab is not an option.
The category thing has some usefulness I guess, but it seems like most really interesting or compelling recordings don't neatly fit into one of the big three categories. Gun to the head answer:
20% Rock
40% Jazz
10% Classical
30% Other

PS It seems like alot of of recordings that don't have any kind of "audiophile" packaging assigned to them sound better than many SACDs, HDCDs and XRCDs.
