Speaking of large libraries, I doubt any of us can beat this guy from Brazil whose story was featured in the New York Times a while ago.

His mission is to buy every vinyl record that exists on the planet. His collection now exceeds a million or more, and is stored in a gigantic warehouse or something. He's standing on what looks like a large set of containers stacked to the top with vinyl records. He buys gigantic collections and sends dump trucks to pick them up worldwide.
He has a team of students working to catalog the whole collection. Not sure he has enough seconds left in his life to listen to all the music he is buying. But I admire his passion. Hope he starts digitizing the old vinyl and puts it on the web for people to stream. Some of this stuff has got to be priceless.
