Well....

I have about four binders full of CDs, and usually I have them organized alphabetically each, and then each binder is generally from a different period of time in my life, so I can kind of guess what's going to be there based on that. I need a new binder if I'm going to keep up with this though. I keep two of these binders (smaller ones - one fits 20, one fits like 76) in my car. The others stay in my house unless I know I want something out of them or really, really want to change it up a lot.

Uh, also, I keep my records alphabetized. I break them up into two sets because even with just 100 it's hard to keep them all in one place. I put each set on one side of my record player. I really would like some milk crates too, they get heavy but they're great for organization.

I have an iPhone that I use like an iPod for podcasts and music that I download. I do not download anything to my computer(s). I also do not rip CDs onto my computer. I am lazy and I have had to back up crazy amounts of music and put them back onto computers too many times. It's all on a hard drive somewhere.

Pretty archaic, right? :) Not exactly what you were asking for, I'm sure.
