How much physical music (CDs, vinyl, minidiscs, cases ingles, whatever) have you bought so far this year?

AmG sold most of his 'collection' at auction recently.

A load of Creation albums were on MD (I have a couple of Boo Radley ones too), I believe it to be because of the Sony link.

Argh! forgot to vote. Mm, would have been the 40-60 bracket, I suppose.

Yup. Amongst other albums on Minidisc I bought at the time, I do owns a copy of Kevin Rowland's "My Beauty".

You can now, but only on ebay.

I think there are literally only about three people in the country who own that particular album on that format. And Kevin Rowland isn't one of them.

Yeah WTF, that might actually be worth something now that Dexy's have reformed. Sell it quick before everyone realises the new album is dull as a bruise to the arm.

Didn't see this to vote.

I guess about 300 used LPs, maybe 20 new ones, and the same amount of singles. A few freebie CDs. No non-physical purchases and a few downloads for work purposes.

Gescom released an MD-only release, but that was over ten years ago now. I used to love MD when I had one - really good for making mixtapes and really easy to use.

Yup, I really loved having my MD recorder to make mixes, especially for parties. Just pop in a new MD when needed. The only commerical album I bought on MD was Rage Against the Machine's Evil Empire, I bought it when I bought my MD player/recorder and it was the only one the store had in its limited selection that was even close to be interesting to me.
