Multiple copies of the same album?


I’ve accumulated a lot of music in the last 4 decades, and I listen to music via LP, CD and hi-Rez audio. Among all that I only have a handful of titles for which I have copies in multiple formats- for instance, I have one recording in vinyl mono, vinyl stereo, CD and hi-Rez. 

For those of you that also listen across multiple formats are multi format versions a small part of your library or do you seem to have a lot of that in your library?

I have multiple copies of rock Lp’s and Cd. Then I started buying the remastered versions, only to learn that the originals in most cases had better sound.
Then there’s the 1970’s, a great period in vinyl, when artists released the same album with different cover art. I have about 10 versions of Kate Bush’s "The Kick Inside." She has different packaging depending on country of origin, plus collectable limited runs.

Now, I search Discogs for the best quality vinyl and CD when I have a disappointing US pressing (the best is often from Germany).
