From the top 100 of progarchives. I'm clocking around 71/100. Still missing some Italiano and more jazzy albums like "Miles Davis".

I've never been curious how many albums from the list I know and listened.

Tastes differ within the discography and genre and subgenres. I personally do not like Gentle Giant's In A Glass House for its repetitiveness. "Way Of Life" looks like an attempt to fill the necessary space on disc. Gentle Giant's debut album is among my favourites. Genesis' favourites are Trespass and Foxtrot. I prefer the first album by Fantasy (which is Paint A Picture) and Spring. I don't count them. I'm too impatient and egotistic for that kind of things. Anyway, respect to the creator of the topic. There may be more patient and less egotistic persons among us here.

I listened to 64 of them, and there are a few of the remaining 36 that I have no intention to listen to at all

As it currently stands (since the bottom of the list is always changing around a bit) I own 92 and have listened to (most of) 5 more. But admittedly, that list has been a guide for a good part of my collection.

I haven’t paid any attention to that list but as you ask I make it 45 that I’ve heard. I’ve collected all 50 albums on the list in Julian Cope’s book Krautrocksampler plus the others he mentions and am currently working through a lot of Tangerine Dream albums using the PA discography and review pages but in a selective way and am not aiming for completionism here.

There are 22 I haven't heard at all and some 25 more of which I have only heard bits and pieces and then decided to not bother listening to the whole thing.

Listened to 62 of them, still missing basically all the jazz and canterbury bar a few bands like Mahavishnu Orchestra. I've also not listened to any neo prog other than Marillion's debut album

88 out of 100. Not sure that I will have enough life time to catch up with all the others, and some of them are (for me) not really "progressive" as they should be, comparing to lesser known things that deserve to be listed but won't be because one group is listed 5 times, another 5 times, etc, etc ... which means that folks that deserve to be there won't because of far inferior albums by better known bands, because of their fame, and everyone sucking up to it!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

When I started coming to PA (and restarted paying attention to good ol' prog) I used the genre top lists as a guide to new discoveries, and for good measure I did so, since it helped me a lot at the beginning ... but then I moved to take advice from particular reviewers' lists/ratings/reviews which I little by little came to discover had similar tastes to mine. I guess I ended up by listening to almost all of the global TOP100 but own now maybe about 50 (lately mainly FLAC downloads)

Me neither. To be honest, I have my list of favorites, and that's what matter when I'm going to listen to music, either favorites or something new to discover. The rest come in second, albums that I occasionally listen to.

Seems I've heard 95 of them, maybe 70 I'm really somewhat familiar with.
