As per Om Malik and The Apple Blog, the record companies are again trying to claim that if we own an iPod (or Zune, or whatever), we are simply theives (billboard.com). To this end, I think we should state approximately how much legal music we have on our iPods (Zunes/Rios/whatevers). That way, even a quick Google search will prove just how wrong these asshats are.

For me personally, that number is is 3800 songs at about 20 GB of data. This music was either purchased at iTMS, ripped from a CD that I own, or offered online by the artist for free.
