I suspect someone will turn up with an insanely large amount. But in the meantime... 27.16 GB.

I don't use the My Music folder, I create folders devoted to category on the hard disk. Eg film music, game music, chart etc.

This is just on my Windows Machine. I have tons more on the Mac on iTunes (I was going to post the picsnip, but I didnt want to ruin the format of this thread)

Edit: (Most of my stuff is also MP3, with the odd few albums as FLAC - All bought music, with the odd few dance licks/mixtapes downloaded from nonsigned artists)

Exactly 5.0GB, but that's only the uncompressed stuff.

I have an uncompressed folder with only 18 or 19 albums in there so far and that's over 8GB. I have another 50ish albums to add to it, too.
