I went looking for something in my CD collection last night and I realized that I have lots of CDs that I never even listen to anymore. Then I got pretty nostalgic, because I do have some CDs that I really love. That's when I decided to make an effort to listen to at least one every day. Today I'll probably listen to several since I don't have to go to work. I might not listen to the actual CD, I'm thinking of saving them in a playlist on Rhapsody so I know what I have (at least the ones that are in the catalog).
I've been thinking about taking our CDs and putting them into sleeves to cut down the amount of space they take anyway. I like the idea of keeping them but they take up two media shelves in our apartment (of course about 50% of our music is Classical too). I'm going to try to figure out a way to blog what I'm listening to each day, but it probably won't be here. I might either use my Vox account or find an application on Facebook to keep track.
I'm also just pulling them off the shelf in random order. We never did reorganize them when we moved so they're just kinda thrown up there. First up though is Sarah McLaclan, Surfacing.

Truly, this whole music thing is getting freaky. I'm the exact same position - I stare at the CD rack and think, I just don't listen to a lot of this stuff any more.
Oh, and yeah, I've got Surfacing.
Oh, I wouldn't be surprised anymore if we have a lot of the same CDs.
I went and bought a CD binder today (enough for 200 CDs), I'm going to strip the CD and insert out and start adding them to the binder.
Then I'm even going to save the tops of the jewel cases and take them to work to as replacements for our broken CD cases. I'm saving space and being eco friendly at the same time!
Additionally I'm creating a Rhapsody playlist of every CD that I own. If I ever feel like listening to my CD collection again, I can do it from anywhere now.
