One more stat to add to the list (with a hat-tip to annise for the suggestion, and ScottLawton for the directional inspiration):

If you listened to all the completed projects in our catalog without interruption, you'd be listening for approximately:
13 years, 201 days, 15 hours and 24 minutes!

No, I cannot vouch for the accuracy of this figure, but it seems properly impressive.

I better get started

That's a very impressive amount! Leads me to believe that finding a good book is certainly worth it

215 to go and at the current rate, we could be there by the new year.

And to update our hypothetical obsessive listener stat:
Someone could ostensibly listen to our entire catalog, at regular speed and uninterrupted, for 13 years, 259 days, 3 hours, 23 minutes, and 59 seconds. Approximately.
