Having spent some time today organising my music collection – ripping CDs I’d recently bought and re-ripping those that I’m sure I used to have on my computer but somehow got lost around the way, I now have the following completely useless stats for you –

I have 231 CDs (counting 2 Disc albums [...]

It never used to take me an entire day to recover from a big night before.
