How is your many titles in your digital collection

Herman- Because I am big brother :) Seriously, because the RIAA released information about SACD and DVDa not to mention redbook cd production numbers for the year and it seems hard to believe. Here is a link to the article in doubt, I am just curious as to what the "average" audiophiles collection looks like to get an idea if these figures could be accurate or not.

Slappy- SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I have this revolutionary new format I like to call "8 track" its going to reinvent the way you listen, but only if you keep the seceret. I've said too much already.........

Herman- This was NOT intendid on being a pissing contest, I am curious when someone makes a claim that DVDa is out selling SACD I am really curious where they are all going! It does not make sense, what's your agenda about badgering my question? I have no hidden agenda, I am merely curious(as stated earlier), so what's your story? If you don't see the point, simply skip this thread and go onto the next one.

Perfectionist- I'd say I listen to about 500 seperate CD's a month, I go in phases of listening to classical non-stop, then folk, then rock, etc... I can be listening to a CD and it will trigger me wanting to listen to another title that I feel is similar(in my twisted world) and that goes on for a few hours every night. I don't create a schedule to listen, I just grab what ever floats my boat. A better question would be of the CD's in my collection, how many do I NEVER listen to- scary to say that number is near or over 100. I just can't bring myself to part with them because I may want to listen to them again one day.

Does anyone else understand my skepticism about those numbers based on the limited response we have so far? Sure its not conclusive, but it does seem clear that something is not right. I have no plans on "taking down Enron" with this one I am just a curious audiophile. How about this question if DVDa sales are larger then SACD sales for this year where are they all going?

I can understand your point, this is the only real world information I have access to in relation to hi-rez sales(through the consumer). It seems, with the numbers we've seen so far, that my suspicions have something to back them up- fwiw.

As I eluded to earlier I have no "plans" with this information, but if I can "prove" to myself that its BS then I would be happy.

Kana813- How unaware are you? It seems painfully obvious that the declining sales are incorrect. It is clear, that we disagree- though I don't think it has anything to do with subject at hand.

Kana- Keep trying but I am not going to play your "game" this time. We agree to disagree, and I am going to leave it at that.

Megasam- Perhaps you are right in the way you worded the question, I got a little carried away with the idea and didn't put as much thought into it as I should have.
