If you have the time to keep up with the Audiogon, Audio Asylum (much less moderated) and the Steve Hoffman Music Forums (very highly moderated), then you have too much time on your hands.
On the Hoffman site, albums, often including every different release/remastering are examined in minute detail to determine which is the "best" version. Almost anything else music related is also discussed at length.
As an example of the Steve Hoffman site’s attention to detail, the Dylan Bootleg Series Volume XII discussion is now up to page 545.
