I've never found LoC to be a very interesting metric.

Sure, it's a -great- metric:

One more thing we can quantify or at least estimate: The folks at the Packard Campus say that when their systems are fully online, they expect to be able to digitize between 3 and 5 petabytes of content per year. (That is to say, 3,000 to 5,000 terabytes, for those who are playing at home .....) And even at that rate, it would still take decades to digitize the existing content.
