if you want to talk punk / hardcore / metal / ska / jazz, add about another 300 vinyl, 250 cd's, and maybe another 20+gb of mp3's.
How big is your track collection

i actually think about that alot though. i was always made to feel bad spending $ on stuff like that as a kid—my fam wasn't really financially sound—so i'm always questioning if "this record" or "this batch" of wavs are really worth it. about 50% of the time the answer is "NO". it keeps me picky which is a good thing...probably why my collection is still only about 300 wax, 2000 digital after roughly 6 years of collecting EDM seriously. but what i got is pretty damn good.

i was wondering that to. i have only really started buying records in the past yr. probably got around 80-100 vinyls. how often do people buy their records?
and to the people who have over 1000 records, for how long have you been buying them for?
i am a student so its quite hard for me to keep buying all the newest tracks that i like as a cant afford it!! i have to be very picky.

Well I'm a student too. As I said earlier: 500 of my 1500 vinyls I bought as a whole package from my brother together with the gear.stu1880 wrote:i was wondering that to. i have only really started buying records in the past yr. probably got around 80-100 vinyls. how often do people buy their records?

And I gues I have been buying vinyl myself for the last 8 years or so...
The last three or four years I only bought from decks and I just have an excell file where I copy all the tracks I like. After a month or two I always order for 100-200€.
So I'm also very picky with the stuff I buy. usually I order the stuff that really blows my mind, or the vinyl only stuff (I usually wait for an order till ther is some very exclusive record that I want, like a lomidhigh limited or a reprint of an older release).
I also have a second list with all the tracks that I like but I don't order, but most of these tracks are also digital so I'll maybe buy them in 5 years or something.
