How much music is in the Final Fantasy Franchise

[Akoura]

Just like the title says, I am wondering how many total songs are there in the Final Fantasy franchise?
This would include both games and anime.

SPOILER!!:

^My head whilst pondering this number (Shocking to children, this is a family site, right)
Well let's say there's 30 songs per game, 13 games, plus side games, plus 15 for movies each, plus the animes..... Yeah I have no time for this, even if it is guessing.
Just say over 9000

Are you wanting to include spin offs, squeals, and also variances in songs from the originals to some of the remakes? Just a question.

Well basically all the Official music. So the ones from the main I-XIV as well as ones such as Tactics, Crisis Core, and even Chocobo Tales (Yes, I include that :3)

Well, I went to the Square Enix site, and they have 1026 tracks up for download if I entered all the numbers correctly. This only includes up to Final Fantasy XI and doesn't include spin-offs, though. I went to wiki and looked at OSTs that weren't featured on the Square Enix site and found about 1000 more tracks. Unfortunately for some of the games I'm sure not all of the songs that were used were released on an OST. If I had to take a guess, I would say there are around 2500 songs in total. This of course would not be including unofficial remakes. Who knows how high this number would get if you included thouse. <_<

Thanks for that

Next mission: Get all 2500+ songs of Final Fantasy :3
