Something on your “to-do list” that never gets done.

I am and always have been a massive fan of collecting physical media. From my earliest days of cassettes and singles to the recent resurgence of vinyl records, I have always loved to have my own copies of music and films/TV and I still do. The problem, of course, is that I have discs and records everywhere! I have CDs and DVDs in those cases that used to be all the rage as I remove the outer plastic cases as soon as possible. The issue is that I end up with the cases everywhere and I forget what I have and what I haven’t played in ages. So, every year or so I take the cases off of my shelves fully intending to sort them once and for all. I often get a couple of hours in, make some headway and then get completely overwhelmed by the scale of the task!! 😱😱🤣🤣

So, on my to do list this year is sorting out my CDs and DVDs once and for all, as well as reducing the number of records I have. Will it happen? I doubt it somehow but I will definitely post about it if it ever happens!! 🤣🤣 If you are interested in the sheer scale of the task look at the pictures attached!

    I have been through several phases of dumping all my stuff then regretting it and buying them again! Media especially. Thing is I bought all my vinyl again then never played them! I know I’m just lining the pockets of Spotify and Apple but it’s just so convenient
