I only buy MP3s anymore. I do miss the cover art & booklets, but it takes up a lot less space in our house.

It keeps them organized and out of the way without taking up so much space and requiring me to buy unsightly furniture to store them in. I can't really imagine ever selling them all, because it would make me cry. A lot. Unless, of course, I was able to replace them all with some super-convenient and uber-cheap method of listening to the exact same stuff.

Even though we have/had no turn table I still regret it - memories, eclectic collection, perhaps-someday-I-can-play-these- thoughts arise once a year.

Now my 23 year old son is a vinyl head and is collecting. I wish he had my old collection, but I can't undo the past.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://anarkiesmusings.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">An Arkies Musings</A>Richard Lawryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03680320073463221740noreply@blogger.com
