Why can't I relinquish my LP collection? It sits in my garage, A thousand
lp's, maybe 2 thousand. I'll only venture out there once a month to make a
selection like Dr. John's Gumbo or some such classic. I keep my dusty LP
player in my Entertainment Center for some reason, too. I know there are a
couple hundred of 'em that are out of print entirely but... It infuriates
my wife to no end. I've got a few collectible gems in there but that
doesn't mean that much to me -- collectibility. If I sold the lot, I'd
probably recoup less than a penny on the dollar -- that discourages me. I
do NOT like the relative inconvenience of LP's. I do think cd's sound
better overall than LP's: though I know any audiophile could prove me wrong
on that. I don't like the idea of "replacing" my LP collection with the
current format. I hate it when my wife asks, "When was the last time you
listened to this?"
I hang on to 'em. Why?
