without doing inventory as there is vinyl, CD's, digital downloads to compile I can list mine in all time favorite terms

1. Todd Rundgren with and without Utopia
2. Warren Zevon
3. Richard Thompson
4. Lucinda Williams
5. About half a dozen artists that occupy this slot depending on time, currently Jason Isbell

 

me? (at first glance)

todd/utopia
yes
pink floyd
motown
zappa
not dave matthews

I have a ton of Dylan because he's put out a ton of stuff. I don't have even a third of it but that's still more than the entire Talking Heads catalog so I disagree with your metric. Stones, somewhere I have more Hank Williams tracks than he actually recorded (for some reason I tried to be a completist and got a bunch of Luke the Drifter too... never ripped it to the computer tho). Jonathan Richman takes up a lot of slots. If I sort iTunes by what's gotten the most plays, well that's screwed up because the kids' plays count into that and someone's played the soundtrack to Fantastic Beasts several hundred times. Oy.

This is a great question.  Gonna take some work and eliminating the few things like having 10 copies of Rumours and Days of Future Passed.
