I don't know if this has already been started, but I thought it might be fun and maybe it'll catch on...or a new thread can start!

I'll start off!

Music: 4,756 song, 13.3 Days, 25.20 GB
Music Videos: 245 videos, 16.8 Hours, 7.75 GB
TV Shows: 275, 5.2 Days, 78.05 GB
Movies: 50 Movies, 3.7 Days, 61.86 GB

Maybe people would want to include audiobooks or games too?

I'm sure there's many impressive iTunes libraries out there...much more impressive than mine.
Let's see em!

2906 items (all music), 7.9 days, 23.18GB (most of my ripped CDs are encoded at 320kbps in MP3 format so they take up some room).

...essentially, not as much as most people, which is strange, because I'm in a band and I live for music. I suppose I need to get in gear with my music.

EDIT: After thinking about it, I realized that I've lost a bit of music over the years since iTunes came out between my older Macs and Windows. I would venture to guess at about another few gigs worth, but still nothing as impressive as you guys!

Or maybe it's just because you have pickier taste because of your music knowledge. Haha

Hehe, I suppose that is possible, but it's more likely because I always buy via iTunes and rarely pick up CD's anymore...so, lack of burnable $$$ might = less songs.

I really do like a wide variety of music, but you might be right. I've narrowed down what I actually sit down and listen to on a daily basis to that which is in the genre I like and actually play myself. The only music I can't stomach is country. That doesn't mean I don't appreciate the musical capabilities of the artists, I just can't listen to it.

You'd think I'd have a lot more music than I do, but it's mostly one genre with a scant few others sprinkled in.
