Default count unique items in ever-growing list?

Hey all -
I'm trying to count the number of albums I have digitized. I have a
series of columns with album info as exported from iTunes. One of the columns
lists Album Name but the album name is repeated for each record (in this case
each Song). I just want to know how many albums I have in the list.

I tried using the formula suggested in another similar post
[=SUMPRODUCT((Data!D2:D1413<"")/COUNTIF(Data!D2:D1413,Data!D2:D1413&""))]
but this requires me to continually update the max range value (i.e.
"D14138") as I import more records. Is there a formula that does the same
thing but can handle empty cells? (so I can put in something like "D9999" for
the max range value)

thanks in advance!!!
