Yeah, but I only need a 6GB disk to store 111 CDs.  Which costs $226.

The point here is that a 350 audio CD changer Is Not Enough, though.
I need to be able to store (at least) 3000 albums.  Not that I have
that many, but I'm still youngish.

(I'm sampling the "M" vinyl now.  Did I really have that many
Morrissey eps?  Huh.  Tsk, tsk.)

Anyway.  Gnus?
