the point is none of your record collections are worth stealing or even owning really because you all have shit taste in music

if you cut that footlong in two you would have two more easily transportable daggers

i think though that this is a totally rational fear, considering the changes that have occurred over the last 5-10 years, and denying the possibility is just incredibly wishful thinking.

my initial thought is that "having a record collection" as a concept was really only ever intended for enthusiasts in the first place, and was more of an inconvenient necessity for millions of other people who enjoy music but don't value physical recordings, don't dig deep into catalogs, don't eagerly seek out new stuff, and don't need trivia, history, or metadata for the stuff they enjoy.
I have been to so many houses where the 'record collection' has consisted of a Korn CD stuck in between an Age of Empires II expansion CD and a 100 Best Arcade Games Funpack CD in a rack next to the computer

yeah, that's my experience, too -- i don't really know that many people who have a "record collection" in the sense we're talking about here. people have some CDs, they don't actively pursue music in the way that people on this board pursue music. xpost

You'd think by the thread topic and the first few posts it would be interesting. I made a couple thoughtful posts... the thread ended up turning to Spotify and CD binders, though.

Which, I suppose, means it DID have a chance. Right.
The vast majority of my friends have serious music collections (where "serious" = "more than 100 CDs"; avg due to the gonzo freaks is probably around 1K)

... which is the joy of ILX, eh? Years' worth of life left in this thread.
That said, I think my comments here -- Bye bye physical singles -- probably say it all. It's interesting that a lot of the meh-Spotify stuff above is coming from US posters who haven't actually used it: all I'll say is that I was deeply sceptical until I tried it. However: I'd also gone from being Mr Phwoar-Look-At-My-Vinyl to Cap'n Crappy MP3 without actually noticing myself giving a shit, so I accept that for people who -- for whatever reasons -- still like to be able to hold their music in their hands, there's a much bigger bridge to cross.
I also fear Jon's absolutely dead-on about the stupidity of the RIAA. However, it's still very early days for Spotify and if/when this mobile application takes off, the game could yet change. As I've said somewhere else (er, probably the Spotify thread), I think a lot of labels are playing along because they see it as something that, while it might not be making them £££ right now, is very obviously the lesser of two evils when compared with Torrents/P2P/other illegal downloading, and offers the potential for a working business model in the future.
Maybe.
