What should my heirs do to dispose of my vinyl and CDs?


I am typing up a document with all details of my system components and cables with approximate values.  No one else in the family knows anything about high end audio.  I suggested they sell the gear at US Audiomart.  What should I suggest they do with the vinyl and digital discs in my reasonably large collection?  I want them to get to others who can enjoy them when I no longer can. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

A while ago I worked on my Music Collector software and cataloged my vinyl collection according to genre. I have been keeping track of my records on this software for quite a long time but I decided that the time had come to add ratings and subjective value to each album. I am doing this for my two sons who I am leaving the collection with when the time comes. Naturally I have added comments to some of the records in the data base explaining why this particular album has more value than others. Things like that. Both the boys love music and have been listening to my rantings all of their lives. I know they probably don't want or need these things of mine but if they end up with them I am pretty sure they will use and keep as it goes. For this reason I have also thought of selling the whole mess. I know they wouldn't care. They will be fine if they get them and fine if they don't.
