[QUOTE="Clint_L, post: 9249460, member: 7035894"] My spouse and I have found, over many decades, that it seldom pays for us to hold on to things other than for sentimental value. Stuff just winds up collecting dust and taking up space, and for what? So my kid has to deal with it after we die? Books used to be a big hassle; we would have boxes and boxes of them. After swapping to a kindle we chucked almost all of them, except a few I keep in my class for lending out to kids (who can keep them if they want; IDC) and some antique books similarly in my class. We have a few art books and I have a few D&D books that I like to peruse on occasion, but we liberated so much space and removed so much clutter. Ditto for CDs - after going to subscription I held onto my collection of over a thousand CDs for a few years before accepting that I would never listen to them again, and donated the lot of them to a local Boys and Girls Club drop-off. Again, liberating, and I now have access to FAR more music. DVDs, same story. For us, letting go of the need to possess physical things just to get at the media content has been a huge quality of life improvement. It also saves us a fortune. [/QUOTE]
