There were two people that tied for guessing the number of gigs in the jar. Scott guessed 265GB and and Jordan guessed 270GB, both of them equidistance from the correct answer of 267.5GB. The number of actual songs on all the players totaled 5,767 and Scott was the closest with a guess of 55,000.
I think they both took their time to carefully analyze the jar along with many other contestants. Many guesses were within 30GB of the correct answer. There were however some space cadet guesses. The lowest being 17GB and the highest guess was 7.5TB.
Thank you all for taking the time to participate and be sure to check out the next contest here.
Congratulations Scott!

Oh wow, I guessed 280GB. I actually got 267GB (seriously i did) but I jumped it up to 280GB just to be safe. What a stupid mistake!

well at least my song count was close (7000), I knew it wasn’t so many, seriously 55,000 songs, like all the players were filled to the brim?
