How many Lp do U have more than 5 of the Same


I was just going over some of my LP the other day to find out that I have 6 copies of Dark Side Of The Moon, 2 are Hot Stampers, but why do I keep the others.
Also 7 copies Of Dire Straits LP, no Hot Stamper.
Led Zep 1V, Oh probably 6+ copies, 2nd issue and up no 1st issue yet. I quess still hoping to find one.
I have 4 Box sets of Rene Leibowitz world Famous for his Readers Digest of The Nine Symphonies of Beethoven.
I have to many LP of the same title some 2 and 3 of the same title.
Must do something about it in the New Year.

Not to get into the other Audio gear that has been sitting for 2-3 years,Tubes, PC, Tweaks, IC, Speakers, DVD players.

Do you have a similar issue

Two copies of an LP is more than enough for me, especially since I probably have a cd copy of it and it is probably also available on Rhapsody to play through my SqueezeBox.

I certainly don't invest because I never intend to sell. I have about 3,000 LP's that I started buying in the early '70's. I woke up 40 years later with what one might call a collection. An accumulation would be more accurate. Over the years, I just bought what I liked with no preconceived plan. I have no holes in my accumulation. I never set out to own "x" amount of any particular artist or a complete set of any artist.

If Rhapsody and Pandora music services along with the SqeezeBox had been around when I started, no way would I own that many LP's along with over 1,000 cd's. For sure, we are the last generation where large numbers of us will own large numbers of hard copy music. The day is fast approaching where your 10,000+ collection will be kept in a device the size of a shoebox.
