Wow...3 million albums...Let's see if I started listening to them today and played them for 8 hours a day that would take approximately...

600 years, not to mention how many turntables and stylus/cartridge combinations it would wear out...

records have awesome sound. there is still a small niche market for them. but very small. they still sell them at newberry comics.

what a bummer.

but it is ridiculous to sell something that retarded and hope no stupid shit like this gets pulled off towards the end. i think he should have just given up if he couldnt sell them over the past decade. or atleast sell the most valuable ones and donate the rest.
