I also use the Elizabeth method. Learned about it (possibly from Elizabeth) many years ago. Click counter on my Ortofon Jubilee shows just over 4,100 sides, and the cart. still sounds good. My rule of thumb for clicking - any side played over 1/3rd merits a click, as does each side of a 45 rpm 12" disc.
I've got a dealer demo Ortofon Cadenza Blue waiting in the wings when the Jubilee is retired.
