If it was just the top 100, I'd pick new music begrudgingly, knowing that I know TATE, Foiled, Unknown Pleasures, Rubber Soul, and Deja by heart. If it was top 250 even though, I think I'd pick no new music.

Picked "No more new music." Here's the thing. A good album gets better the more times you hear it (generally). Many of my top 100 have been able to bear up to repeated listenings, some as many as 30 years worth. I would have to a new album a lot over 30 years before I love it as much as my top 10, which you (evil dimension guy) would be taking away from me.
I just went through and revised my top 100, and I'm pretty happy with it. I could enjoy listening to it over and over.
By the way, the choice was "no new music" implying that I would get to keep all of my top 1000 (or whatever) I just couldn't add anything to it.
Note: It's not that I don't like new music. It's a great joy to me discovering new music. However, it's not as great a joy as going back and revisiting an old favorite.

If they're truly random that's not a very difficult choice. Neither option gives you the chance to listen to new music ever again, and I imagine most people would choose 100 100/100 albums over 200 75/100 albums any day. I certainly would.
