Compared to almost all here, I have a relatively small collection of ALAC encoded files in the 75Gb region.  I do go to the library and rip CD's, and buy what I like, but I don't see myself ever getting to what some of the collections are on here.  But I have the rest of my life to try.

About 250gb Hires and Lossless CD rips around 500gb video

I have never found a use for FLAC files, so i'm under 250. I typicaly download on average 100 albums per year.

 

[epicFAIL]

it's getting bigger. but my active playing library seldom crosses a gig, considering i don't need high bitrates on el cheapo earbuds  

 

[VisceriousZERO]

Always been a collector, Currently have 934gb left in my 2tb drive

Hi Jude I have more than a terabyte, as I mainly listen to either red book quality or HD quality tracks, I do have a few mp3s however they are not my preference when I purchase new music.

 

[hennessys]

Approximately 450GB lossless music with a few mp3 and 4.2 TB movies (mainly BRrips) here

A single copy of my entire collection in .wav takes up 211gb, there are only a couple of hi-res albums in that the rest is 16/44.1 mostly ripped from CD.

Depends on what you mean by "*all* my music/media". I have about 500GB of WAV files for my main system, with FLAC copies on a backup drive for 300GB and then 190GB in MP3 copies of the same library for my portable gear. If I could get my Samsung to recognize my external DAC, I'd have 300GB in FLAC files on a drive that it accesses. But each of these is a separate copy of the library for a specific use.

I have both a lossy collection and a lossless collection, everything I have that is lossless I have also transcoded to lossy formats (gerenally MP3 VBR 192) so there are duplicates, I also keep a separate backup of all music on a second drive (in case of drive failure or user-error) 
 
My Lossless collection is around 220GB (x2 due to redundancy), Lossless around 100GB...

Do you mean the amount the data takes up or the size of the drive?

My stored media is just my music now, with my collection somewhere around 400gb I think. I used to have a lot of video media, and then my collection was well over a terabyte, but these days I have subscription to video streaming services, and if I really love something and want to own it, I buy the Bluray.

 

[fabio-fi]

Around 400Gb on my netbook, and 750Gb on my external drive. Mostly lossless  

 

[storrgie]

Currently around 4T. If anyone else is approaching the 1T size I would seriously recommend checking out beets: http://beets.radbox.org/
 
Edit: That's 4T of music. It is mostly lossless and I've recently been converting SACDs over to DFF (now that mutagen has added support). I have a good close friend group of collectors that purchases and shares around. I've become the archive for most of our collections.
