How often do you file/purge physical copies of music?

I've been ripping and tagging about 2K CDs over the past few months. The repetitive boredom is so deep that I swear I'll never purchase physical media again.

When we ripped ours we set up a little station in the kitchen, so I’d just rip stuff constantly while making breakfast and dinner.

Don't buy more than 10-20 CDs / tape cassettes per year... they're usually researched and deliberated over beforehand, so minimal culling. Been to lazy to try and sell anything lately. Regular Bandcamp purchases (often digital), keep the clutter to a minimum.

^ This has been my method the last few years. I basically just buy 20-30 CDs a year now.

Do you limit yourself or do you only find that many that you want to own?

(a few months later -- apologies) I use streaming services to narrow down my purchases. I kind of have a loose rule of roughly 70%-or-better ratio to buying the album as a CD or just a handful of songs.
