3. Why?
How are you going to find anything? :cry:

I have my CDs sorted by genre, and by how much I like them. That way, I know if I'm interested in listening to Modern Country today I reach over here... and they're in order from my favorites down to the ones I just sort of like. :P

12. I'd label him under whichever genre I most associate him with.
That's kind of subjective, but as long as I'm the one looking for his CD I'd know where it is. :)

It's moot though, because I really don't like Neil Young.

14. Ah.
If you're not disciplines about putting them back, then I can see the problem. :)

But now you still have to be disciplined, or they won't be in alphabetical order any more. :shrug:

27. I was trying to see if you would use the circular file on it
Edited on Wed Dec-19-07 03:57 PM by TommyO
but you're right, it was mean of me. Normally I wouldn't have thought of ol' Ted, but an anti-gay poster on another system uses the name Theodore Nugent and I had a go around with him.

28. "Archaic CD Collection"
I'm still trying to wrap my elderly brain around that phrase. Were they dug up from an Egyptian tomb?

Hell, I think I've still got some eight-tracks around the place.

35. Where do you file your Ben Folds Five / Ben Folds CDs
This one has always troubled me.
Should you put the ones with his group under B for Ben and the solo ones under F for Folds?
It seems silly to separate them.
