Macdadtexas, thank you for your suggestions. I am a computer geek who has been lucky enough to sell my ideas for substantial profit and I will check out the Drobo.
Why Do You Still Have Vinyl if You Don't Play it?
.
I own 3,000 plus lp's that I just don't play anymore. I told my 14 year-old son that he can have them when he starts college. He said no thanks, he said that he can carry around that much music in his back pocket in his iPod. I tried to explain to him that if he played LP's in college, he'd easily be one of the coolest students on campus. He told me to "get real" and thanks, but no thanks. I think I just may have to go through the task of grading each LP and selling them off. I've tried to convince myself that I will one day play them. I was just fooling myself. For the last fifteen years, I play one or two LP's a year just for the hell of it. I do like looking at them in their Ikea racks and marvel how I assembled my collection over nearly 40 years. I do like it when visitors comment on them and look through them. Cd's killed my vinyl and now my Squeezebox is finally going to bury it.
How many of you still have a sizeable vinyl collection that you don't play, but refuse to let go of?
I think it's time for me to let go.
