Making sure they were sorted just right so you could actually find something was a load of fun as well!

K-Tel had it all sussed out for you Craig....
 

Hehe, "Holds 24 records."  Why would you even need that for only 24 records??!  Great find Steve!  Now I would have only needed to buy about 200 of them plus moving to a house with a few empty rooms... 

Not to mention finding enough milk crates!!

How long does it take you to drive to work?
Can you listen to an album in that period?
Yes, you can.

No I can't.
 
It takes me ~11 minutes to drive to work and that includes backing out of the driveway.

My stepdad has a ginormous collection of old jazz 78's from the 30's up to the 60's. There's probably close to 3000, many of them very rare. He inherited them from his father and they take up most of a room. Recently he was talking about who he would pass them onto when he died, and he found that nobody in his family wanted them - primarily because of the space they take up. Ain't nobody got that much room for music any more. 
 
I have to admit, my shelves are pretty much full and I've given away everything I don't want to keep. So I don't buy CD's and very rarely buy books. Everything's digital downloads. 

I guess one thing this thread demonstrates that the answer given by the article definitely ignores a lot of other options.  Remember when you wanted certain songs from an album you had to buy the album because there was no single?  Now you can buy a la carte and even legal freebies are common.  I woke up wit ha Katie Perry album on my phone and still not sure how it got there

All I listen to are albums when I'm home.
 
The packaging and sound is better than ever. I don't have one vinyl album from my past that had anything
but a giant rolling paper or photos (white album).
Now I can not only get the vinyl (if wanted) but also a package with a hell of a lot more than just a big cover to twist one on. I don't opt for vinyl because I can't think of one good reason other than having it to go with a collection that is in boxes stored away. Man, "Endless River" and I got a photo book and three post cards to send someone not to mention two discs full of the last workings of PF. I made the long-ass haul with them! How ****ing cool is that and I've never counted how many great CD packages with vinyl,Cd's and goodies I have. Man I've even gotten t-shirts with some of them LOL.
 
When I hear that people aren't enjoying scarfing up and listening to all the great albums being offered today all I can think is, "that's just to ****ing bad for them"...as if I give a flying ****. It's pretty obvious to me that there must be a hell of a lot of people that are because I have no trouble finding great music, sounding most excellent and candy to boot...well maybe they are doing it all just for me.
 
Of course there are many things in life I enjoy without ever considering if anyone else is...as if I'd even care to know. Wouldn't even think about it on my own.
 
I guess I could be like that dick and imagine the reason everyone isn't doing any number of things is because they're just working to many jobs...wow...some of the **** I read. Imagine that...me listening to numerous albums while whittling out a bad-ass guitar and holding down a day job too...his head would probably explode I'm guessing. Oh well...that's just to ****ing bad.
