Let’s be honest and not try to impress people that we’ll never meet.

Got my records and tapes down to zero. On the cusp of doing the same with my CDs.

Like 300 maybe? Mostly CDs but a small collection of tapes and records too. I used to collect a lot of shit from like 1999-2004 and probably had about double that at some point but got rid of a lot of albums over time too.

I hardly buy physical copies of anything anymore but I'm always down to browse a used CD store if I find one.

Got rid of my tapes to a buddy that had a tape player in his car. Got about a thousand cds and a few hundred records.

just hip hop? maybe a few hundred combined, mostly records and CDs. If we're talking jazz, though, maybe double that

If I can’t listen to it in my car, I’m out. HomePod just reinforces that even more. I have boxes and boxes of cds and tapes in storage that are good for a nostalgia trip, but I don’t need them in the house. Plus I don’t need anyone asking me who Josh Martinez is or why I have 72 Moka Only cds.

wicked, what temperature and humidity level do you maintain in your vinyl vault?
does it fluctuate noticeably when you perform your ritual to stand, hover, masturbate, and walk in circles?

Virtually zero (have a few random CDs still kicking around). I sold off the bulk of my collection a few years ago and now primarily use Spotify. I didn't have a ton of CDs anyway, I think my collection was around ~200 when I decided to dump them. I still have all my MP3 rips and downloads backed up in case I want to revisit something that isn't on Spotify.

Same with movies and TV shows. I have a bin with a few DVDs leftover but otherwise it is Plex, Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.

I've also begun buying most video games digitally. I'll still pick up the occasional physical disc if there's a sale or cheap used copy.
