my collector's side is screaming in my ear to start to collect vinyl and get a sick record player.
Christ, so many options. I have got thousands of CDs that i've been collecting since the 3rd grade, all of the songs in mp3 format, and i just don't know if i can swing another format. I would feel the urge to repurchase most of the cds i have on vinyl. |
Honestly the transition is pretty easy. I really only collect vinyl from bands I worship or incredible albums. I've also cut down on my CD buying though to level out the 2. Instead of buying 3-5 cd's a mont. I'm down to 1-3 cd's of albums I really want to hear and 1-2 vinyl records. This also gives me some cash left over to buy some dig up some old CD or Vinyl on eBay. It's easier than you think man. It's just all about money management.
^^^ Granted I'm 25 now and have a career and saving up for more law school so budgeting has become a lifestyle. If you're like 19 or something, it may be harder for you because "budgeting" to me at 19 was "man I gotta buy a months worth of ramen so I can hit up the 7 shows I want to go to this month." Priorities change over time lol.
