I like talking heads, but there are other post-punk groups I like more, like pere ubu, xtc, and the cure.

>>128209085
A vast majority of them are used. I live by a flea market I got to during the summer. The vendors sell these for fairly cheap. I do occasionally go on Discogs and buy stuff that's cheap and have interesting genre tags. I don't buy nearly as much anymore because if I keep buying in bulk I'll never be able to listen to them all and that'd defeat the entire purpose of collecting.
>>128209102
I don't care about sex. I don't spend this much on vinyl on the off chance a woman MIGHT date me. I plan on listening to all of them and I'm about halfway through the collection. I've been collecting since I was in middle school.

It's a performative thing. They do it so they can show it off to other people because they have no personalities. Same shit with guys who have huge physical collections of books or movies. When you can fit more media than you could ever experience onto a single hard drive, it really lets you distinguish the people who actually enjoy listening to music from the people who just enjoy being perceived as people who enjoy listening to music.

>>128208780
Suppose this guy actually has 30 "cubbies" of ~90 records each. That's 2,700 records. How often does he actually listen to any given record? It's a decoration. It's furniture. He doesn't actually listen to the vast majority of it. These people have no personalities and they try to compensate by having this sort of visible external "personality".

A lot of your post is cope over not having spare funds for discretionary spending. Yes, there's an element to "performative" posturing, but that you need to tell yourself that *all* of these men are like this, is cope.
>When you can fit more media than you could ever experience onto a single hard drive, it really lets you distinguish the people who actually enjoy listening to music from the people who just enjoy being perceived as people who enjoy listening to music.
Kek. Youngfags post this sort of cope a lot, it's a means to defend their self-esteem from a perceived sense of lack because they can't afford shit. Just be real.

I would say the bulk of people with a large collection of physical media also have a large collection of digital media. This thread is overloaded with the mistaken assumption that physical and digital media are mutually exclusive, and that owning physical media necessarily entails some kind of antagonism against digital media. Even more baffling would be the level of bitter resentment some anons here have for the concept of owning some physical media. I genuinely can't imagine why someone would be triggered by that

>~90 records each
To get the nitpick out of the way: each cubby only fits about 60 to 70 depending on the thickness of the spine and whether it a singles or double album, along with various other factors.
>How often does he actually listen to any given record?
If you mean the collection as a whole? Almost daily. Depends on my work schedule. If you mean specific albums then you're gonna have to narrow it down. It really depends on what I feel like. Once I get through the whole collection I'll probably just replay them at random. You'd really need to narrow down by artist / genre if you want relisten factor.
>>128215897
>actually it means you wasted a bunch of money
It's not 'wasting' if you enjoy the hobby, Einstein. Just like it's not wasting money if someone buys a movie or TV show or book. If you buy a product, use it, and enjoy it, then you spent it well.
>>128220512

I know your exact position because I'm in it as well. Been seriously collecting CDs for about 15 years at this point, I think I'm around 3k. Some of the collections I see elsewhere are completely fucking retarded numbers and that's saying something.

right. even if you bought only 8 to 10 cds a year obviously by the end of the first year you will have 100 cds. then as the years go by it really start to add up. i didnt really think about collecting when i started buying cds but years later i guess i am a collector at this point with a couple thousand cds. i have been lazy over the years when it comes to organizing them though. only the last few years have i really been putting a lot of effort into it. i like to have them on shelves alphabetized

I know that exact feeling. Charity shops (here in the UK at least) are incredible for that. Depending on the shop you could go in and come out with a good number. Repeat that over time and it builds up at a surprising rate.

>i have been lazy over the years when it comes to organizing them though. only the last few years have i really been putting a lot of effort into it. i like to have them on shelves alphabetized
I have a main shelf that hasn't changed for years at this point and the rest are in boxes.
