I run a steady group of about 3K LPs. Sometime it will peak up to 4.5K, but then I'll cull out LPs I like, but would hardly ever play. I do have about 750 CDs.
If I had too I could cut down to my most favorite music that would e around 500 LPs. Of the other 2.5K, LPs change as I find music I like better.
I own about 20x as many CDs as LPs, and I sold the vast majority of LPs 20 years ago. I may own 30x as many CDs...frankly I've never bothered to tally them up.
During most of the years when I would have been accumulating LPs, I was *playing* music rather than listening to recordings. The idea that the number of recordings (regardless of format) in one's possession is a gauge of one's love of music is nonsense.
I think these types of threads are simply opportunities to parade some metaphorical plumage.
