I have a few boxes of stuff I stopped listening to years ago and have been going through it all.
A few surprises and wonder why I stopped (other than it sounds "dated", odd coming for a guy that listens to 40's jazz)
Back in late 90's early 00's I would raid the used CD bins near work since many music industry folks were near there (UMG, MTV to name two) so promos were cheap and plentiful.
A couple happy surprises so far:
Lloyd Cole, Bryan Ferry (although I still listen to a couple Roxy LPs), Orbital, William Orbit, Morcheeba and the list is growing.
A couple things I knew I would still like:
Portishead, Mazzy Star.
The good news / bad news is there is no real value tied up in these so not worth sorting to sell but OTH people can buy this stuff cheap (not an offer to sell, just an FYI for those looking) and it still beats streaming IMO.
