Vinyl, CD's and Digital Files Accumulated Over A Lifetime


...

I fully intend to listen to all of the music that I've purchased in my lifetime, and I am on schedule to do it by my 592nd birthday.

I will never give up my CDs LPs DVDs, etc. Some of my CDs are from the early 80s and still play perfectly. How many hard drives do you own that lasted 40 years, or even 10 years? Hard drives are not archival. HDs crash, and sometimes we don’t back things up properly. Also personally when I have all my music tucked away on hard drives I stopped listening to it. Out of sight out of mind. Seeing all my CDs lined up on my bookshelf draws me in and I get excited about putting an album on, looking at the cover art, reading the liner notes. The ritual of putting the disc in the CD changer or the vinyl on the turntable just adds to the pleasure of listening to music, not pushing a mouse button.

 

But hey if anyone is trying to unload their CDs drop me a line.
