What is the actual percentage of people exclusively listening to vinyl vs digital?

I listen in a period of few years thousand of times the same cd with variation for sure with other cd...

Am I nut?

Some music like the art of the fugue or orchestral suites of Bach cannot be listen a few times...

Some other music ressemble any other and i dont want to listen to it more than few minutes....

There is always the deep moving music, few hundred of which we return each day, week, months, or year....

The other are only a temporary curiosity without great thrill save the change...


I listened for example Heinrich Schutz "Geistliche Chormusic by Mauersberger each day for few years one hour.....I dont fathom till this day this absolute choral masterpiece like very few at the same level even Bach work hard to create....A pure synthesis of German heavy grammar with baroque italian harmony fusionned perfectly.... It is so great works that even Schutz never repeat this.... Like, nevermind his marvellous 500 other concertos, there is only one "four seasons" in all Vivaldi...

@sokogear  What's wrong with listening to an entire collection once through every 20 years?   I don't of course as only 18,000 LPs are in my adjacent room for current listening and I intend to dispose of many 1,000s over time.   My 3,500 ethnic records (LPs and 78s) are not just for listening pleasure but I serve as the recordings librarian for a conductor of a symphony and choirs.  I make CDs/digital transfers of audios and videos in my collection.  I don't view having an extensive collection as a liability.   Just as I don't view having 3,500 books as a liability although I rarely read more than a book a month (I peruse books for items that interest me-my late wife's 500+ fiction books are unread by me).  Lastly, I've had 60 years worth of listening pleasure which would mean at your calculation, at least 3 plays per LP per my life.  I hope to have another 40 years worth of plays.

Nothing is wrong on the contrary you are lucky...

Myself i own near 10,000 diverse formats of music....

 I am ashamed to own less than you...... 😁😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

No time to get to know any album. I am more like @mahgister than you, but not to that extent. I don’t know how many hundreds of times I’ve listened to “Kind of Blue” or”Aja” or dozens of others and noticed new things sometimes, especially if I’ve changed a component or better yet, put in a tweak.

to each his own...whatever makes you happy and enjoy the hobby. Like I said, I am 100% vinyl, but I can see the attraction of SACDs for a younger audiophile than me by 10-20 years who grew up with no vinyl coming out and their new music only available on CD.

I can even understand those who listen to compressed streams in order to explore lots of new music. I’m very picky and very biased towards albums that came out when I was in college and high school and classic (mostly) jazz I discovered 20 years ago. 
I will say that in listening to Sirius in my wife’s car, I rediscovered a few people/groups that I knew about but never got into and bought some albums that I like. I play CDs in mine because I hate switching stations. Therefore, I guess nobody can be 100% vinyl since you can’t play a turntable in a car. 

@sokogear
That's very nice that you enjoy listening to music and don't obsess about the type of delivery.  

I don't obsess over having "too many" recordings or how many times I listen to them.  I've heard AJA about a dozen times and collect most of Steely Dan (I like rock as well as my aforementioned opera, classical, jazz and ethnic music-I don't like rap or hip-hop or most post 1995 pop music).  

Apparently, 45 car players were available (especially in Chryslers)

Techmoan is a terrific YourTube site with thoroughly investigated electronics of the past (mostly music related) which I find fascinating https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5I2hjZYiW9gZPVkvzM8_Cw
