This is also something I talk about every time music comes up.
When I was a kid I had maybe 50 LPS. I had a friend who had managed to amass a collection of 1500. I thought that was so cool. I wanted an LP collection like that.
I had another friend his name I don't even remember who said that he never listen to the radio anymore because he had so many good albums.
Again, I wanted to be that guy.
On the way I have accumulated between 6 and 700 CDs. I just checked and 160 of them are on my phone. I can take them anywhere I go. I maybe listen to 30 of them on a regular basis.
I have Pandora and TuneIn on my TV, I have Klove, Air1 and the local Christian station on my phone.
And 90% of the time when I'm home alone I turn on the TV I turn on the local Christian station that we have through TuneIn and that's what I listen to

I'll bet you if you adjusted for inflation it's the same price
My grandson-in-law is Space Force. He basically sat in an office in Colorado Springs and killed people in Afghanistan with drones.
According to him and I have no reason to doubt this they make him wear OCPs to work so that he remembers that he's in a combat situation.
And they gave him the Space Force equivalent of a combat patch which he refused to weat
I'm using some of the same stereo stuff that I bought when I was a kid.
The Marantz receiver I bought in 1974 from a friend in high school. I have it set up as a tuner only now, but it still works. I bought the Phase Linear amp and pre amp in 1978 from my cousin who owned Sight and Sound on Queen City Ave.

One of tthese makes quality stereo equipment unnecessary.
The vast majority of you will not give a damn about this and I wouldn't have posted it except for this just came in the mail today and this thread is here.
The CD is 28 years old and it is almost impossible to find
When you do they want upwards of 70 bucks for it. The last time I looked for it they were selling it between $75 and $85 a copy.
I found one copy on eBay from a Goodwill in Pittsburgh. Three bucks plus shipping. I think I paid seven bucks for this copy.

I have a friend in PA. that I was in the Corps with. He had all the stereo gear your could ever want. Every week he bought a Billboard and checked the "Hot 100 Albums" list. If he did not own all of them he would go to the Sound Shop on base and buy them. Last count he had over 2000 albums (some still sealed). Then he got into CD's (both music and money). Again he has over 2000 of those. Then I got him interested in firarms..............................an we won't go there!
