Not to rub salt but I find this an interesting comment coming from a list that told me a while ago that music still has value. Vinyl was the first casualty in the ongoing crash of one's musical portfolio. The viral proliferation of music for pennies a pop (or free if you prefer it that way) means that vinyl, cassettes, CDs and those old wax cylinders will be nothing more than landfill sooner rather than later.This is in no way directed at you, Peter. Just an observation.Two weeks ago I began unloading my vinyl at a record show in town by renting a booth. I tripled the amount of money I paid for the booth.I hope to have everything gone and money in my pocket (while I can still get it) by the new year by doing this at several other area record shows over the Fall.Jaimie Vernon,

A quick peek on e-bay , however, tells me these discs had less value (monetarily) than I would have thought. Rare picture discs, 12" singles, etc., - from artists I thought would have a sizeable following - may fetch a few bucks here or there. For me, it's not worth the effort.> > What do you do?
