Just a side comment as various people already responded.

In theese cases it would help to describe your use case with as much 
detail as possible, unless the question is really trivial.
If you explain _why_ you want to store/remove incoming midi notes in a 
list it helps because maybe there is a different/similar approach to 
ahieve the same result... Otherwise people (like e.g. patrice) have to 
guess what the scenario is and without detailed background it's really 
difficult.

- Where are the midi notes being pressed? An external midi keyboard?
- What is the list of (pressed) midi notes used for?
- What's your expected rate of notes pressed e.g. per second (one, tens, 
houndreds, millions??)

etc. etc.
