Rolling Stones, Beatles, Tom Petty, Radiohead, Modest Mouse, Led Zepplin, Blue Oyster Cult, U2, Wham (haha), (Listen to them>The Flaming Lips<LISTEN TO THEM), Matisyahu, Bob Marley, Nas, Danger Doom (album), Immortal Technique, Paul Oakenfold, Reel Big Fish, Dave Matthews Band, Talking Heads, Queen, i could keep going.

2000 CDs?! That is awesome! It sounds like mostly stuff that I listen to as well.

I don't really get into crazy screaming rock, like Zao and Chaos Rising; I like hard rockers that know how to sing, like Disturbed and Sevendust. I can listen to bands like Slipknot, but I have to take it in small doses, otherwise it can get annoying; can't have too much mayhem.

I also like some techno-type rock, like Nine Inch Nails, or Dark Soho, but I don't have too much of that in my library. Really, I'll listen to most modern forms of rock, and some classic stuff.

lol, that's funny cause I do too! You guys might think this is retarded, but I've got the music from a bunch of old Sega Genesis games:

Sonic 2
Sonic 3
Sonic & Knuckles
Sonic Spinball
Ranger-X / X-Ranza (best Genesis tunes out there!)
Rocket Knight
etc.

And a few N64 soundtracks:

Goldeneye 007 (of course!)
Perfect Dark
Conker's BFD (I made my own custom Windows sound scheme with the 1-liners too)


And it's a good thing Inu-Ya mentioned it; I almost forgot Static-X! Also, Tool is awesome, and I can dig Breaking Benjamin, Three Doors Down, Staind, and Linkin Park.

Not retarded at all. I remember some early first gen PlayStation 1 games that had the audio tracks on the game disc as if they were and audio CD, the tracks could be ripped with an audio CD ripping program - of course I ripped all the tracks of my games that were made that way, too bad game developers don't have them that way now. Probably the most game music I have is from the Final Fantasy soundtracks, I also like the qwerky techo sound from Descent 3 (my favorite spaceship fighter game of all time) which was downloadable in low quality 128kbps mp3 format many years ago on mp3.com by AutoPilot.
