How many unopened Cd's do you have?

[Coopmv]

Still about 150 ...   

[Daverz]

I have about 10 right now.  A friend of mine must have hundreds.  Whole unopened series, like the Original Masters series.

What I'm more worried about is opening a case and finding nothing.  I been getting really sloppy recently, and have found two cases like that.

[Dr. Dread]

Zero.

Though I think I have once CD that got sucked into another dimension. It vanished right out of the case and is nowhere to be found. 

[Valentino]

None.
But I must admit that I have CDs ripped to hard disk that I haven't heard yet. Maybe 20?

[Henk]

I probably have 6-12 unopened discs. Far worse than this is buying CDs and then finding that I already own them  

How many times did that happen to you?

Is that counting the Bach's cantatas set as one unopened  "CD"?

[Bunny]

Along the lines of some of the recent posts:  In January,  I stopped buying cd's because I had so many things I'd only given a cursory listen to or things that were not even opened.  While at first,  it was difficult to read great comments and reviews about particular disks and not be tempted to buy, after I started in on getting to know what I had it became a little easier because there was so much new stuff to listen to.  I'm at the tail end of this process and now only have maybe 15 things that are left unopened.  A lot of Bartok,  the Kertesz Dvorak cycle,  Boulez M2 and some others I can't remember off hand. 

Do you have a pile of stuff that is unopened?

Allan

Enough to make me feel guilty every time I buy another.  I don't even want to start counting.

[Coopmv]

No, that is counted as 60 CD's since it makes no sense to count the set as one.

[Brahmsian]

So, how many unopened or unlistened to CDs do you have, and how far back is the timeline?

Some of mine, going back at least four years:

Varèse - complete works

Bartók - 5 of the solo piano music/chamber works from the complete Decca box set.

Górecki - 6 out of the 7 discs from the Nonesuch box set.

That's pretty much it, I don't think that there is anything else.

[steve ridgway]

None at all, I always listened to them before buying any more.

[71 dB]

I have three CDs bougth last summer still in plastic wrappings:

- Atterberg's Cello & Horn Concertos on CPO
- Boccherini's String Quartets G213-215 on CPO
- Flute music at the Berlin court on Accent.

[Karl Henning]

None.

[Jo498]

Technically, one or two (the only one I easily find is Carissimi Jonas + Jephte on Ligia). But I have far more unlistened disc. Typically sets or boxes I never got all the way through.
Nowadays I buy most CDs used, so they are not wrapped anyway  but I usually listen to them pretty soon unlike in former years where I bought too many, and especially too many large boxes I could not get through before something else claimed my attention.

[vandermolen]

I'd guess about 20-30 but that might be wishful thinking.

[Christo]

Hundreds that I unwrapped, but never played.

Wishful thinking in which direction? Are you afraid there are more or less than that? 

[vandermolen]

Possibly many more 71 dB 

[vandermolen]

+1 

[71 dB]

Possibly many more 71 dB 

Oh. Thanks for the clarification. 

[André]

About 100-125 unwrapped, and maybe 100 from big boxes not completely listened to. Lots of hard work ahead, I guess...
