I am 49 and got into vinyl for the first time about 15 years ago. My buying criteria was let's say not too selective in the beginning....lol. I was simply so excited to be spinning records and loving every moment. The past 5 or so years I have been adding more audiophile recordings and am around 1000 in total. I added 100 in 2020 and already 39 YTD. If you load your collection into Discogs this is an easy stat to determine. I listen around 50-60 hours a week. I have been working from home throughout the pandemic so the stereo is on most of every day. I was talking to an audio buddy this week about this and I probably need to remove at least 100-200 as I never touch them. I already have about 200 that I officially decided to not touch but haven't done anything with them. There is an exciting listening library being constructed in our old Sears warehouse/distribution/retail center here in Memphis(Crosstown Concourse). EgglestonWorks has partnered with them to set up their speakers in this music library that will be open to the public. Not sure mine would be wanted but I may offer to them as a donation.
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?
