Backlog
I have an "unsorted" folder where I put all the songs I download/rip/somehow acquire before I decide to keep them or delete them. Over the past week or two I've actually focused on listening to my "unsorted" playlist when I'm not listening to something else I'm writing about, and I've gotten rid of hundreds of MP3s. I'm now down to around 650.
Clearly, I was letting them pile up for far too long. I've also been trying to sell some CDs, but when I went to the Beat Goes On today I wound up walking out with Public Image Ltd.'s first record, the new Johnny Cash best-of (which is the first one disc collection that at least looks promising) and Hangedup's Kicker in Tow, because it was $8 and I'm a sucker for the viola (not to mention the cello).
Someday I will get ahead of my collections.
