The world is full of good used LP's and CD's. Old farts keep dying or moving into care homes and their families ditch "Grandpa's crap" at the Sally Anne thrift store, or at a yard sale. Today I got 31 mint jazz CD's at the Sally Anne for $2 each, minus a 10% senior's discount. Two days ago I got 15 mint classical CD's at a yard sale at 5 for $12. I gave the seller my contact info in case her 80 year old husband wants to sell more. The fun of such foraging is that you never know what you'll find. You take a $2 flyer on an unfamiliar artist and might be surprised. I say keep our musical heritage out of the landfill - buy used records and CD's!
