How many vinyl albums do you own you listen to?

So far I own around 300 vinyl albums all purchased in a last 20 years. Even while I listen to for about 10 albums a week it seems I want to keep adding more and more to my library. I wonder if there is a point when one says it's enough, there is no point to add more as there is no time or an interest to listen to them all. How many do you have? How much time it look to put it together? How many of them do you really listen?

575 here. Rotated as much as possible. The hoarding never stops.

For those who wonder, according to a World Wide Web "...Hoarding is the persistent difficulty discarding or parting with possessions, regardless of their actual value. The behavior usually has deleterious effects—emotional, physical, social, financial, and even legal—for a hoarder and family members."

About 200.... had more but A thief stolen them when I was in college. 

I listen to about 100 or so.  I find Rotating them to play results in some albums being background music versus “listened to”

The 100 or so that get listened to are because the volume I have with certain artists that result in guests rediscovering a band or musical style.

Maybe 1600 LPs, many in box sets. I'm not going to count the wife's, which has got to be in the mid three figures. I've gotten ridden of my share over the years, too. As for actually adding to the count, I probably haven't gotten a slice of vinyl in 10 or so years. In any event, yes I still listen to more than a few of them.

About 1100 in NM condition in main collection with another 600 in G/VG/VG+ that don’t get much play. I’ve listened to about 680 different albums in the past 12 months, and maybe 100 of those more than once. Been collecting since the 80s with a break for 10 years due to travel. Still buy a few from time to time.
