The 13,000+ comprise the uniformly-tagged meticulously structured discographic archives, record label chronologies, and other collections in my digital library. I only invest in physical copies of my most essential albums, which is a measly ~4000 albums. Mapping the digital library is far more representative of my day-to-day listening and is far easier to implement graphically as I've already prepared the metadata for those libraries.

OK, just wondering. I thought maybe you were approaching the same jam I'm in with my physical library.

13,000 store bought recordings?

How about a vinyl, CD, cassette breakdown?

Yeah, I've started reducing it lately.
Got it down to around 25,000.
Breakdown? Please, I'm not ISB.

Wow...

I'm defninitely keeping myself in a leash so it stays within what I can actually listen to. Don't wanna become a hoarder.

The amount of shelf space I have sets a sort of hard carp and I think that's best for me.

My digital library is nearly 1:1 with my physical, so that's not too crazy either.

Yeah, I don't want to be a hoarder either,
that's why they're being culled thru.
The larger pick-thru begins in 2019,
because major construction is happening
in the house later in the year and a portion
has to be separated and loaded into Pods.

My hard limit for how much I can listen to is probably much smaller than yours too. I don't listen to music 24/7, but more like 1-3 hours per day on average. Also revisiting the same albums a lot, so if one does the math, I should probably not own too far over one thousand albums on CD and vinyl if I don't want albums to sit on the shelf for years without getting any time in the stereo.

You only own one or two albums?

I'm trying to conform to US spelling and such, but "," and "." are nailed down hard the Danish way in my mind.

EDIT: Made it something both of us can live with.
