I have seen hardcore gamers by at least one $50 game a week. If your

appetite for music is so great that you need to buy 5 CDs a week, one

needs to perhaps either practice some self-control or make enough money

to buy those 5 CDs a week.
I've bought as many as 5 CDs a week, but usually from the "Final

clearance, reduced to $1" rack. I like to play "CD roulette" - buy some

cheap CD, knowing nothing about the kind of music that's on it, and hear

  what it sounds like. If I like it, I keep. If not, I give it away or

donate it somewhere.
Anyone want a CD called "Dueling Organs" featuring Lyn Larsen performing

on the Paramount Theatre Organ and Carlo Curley performing on a "digital

electronic organ"? (Sorry, I know no more about the "digital electronic

organ" than that phrase, which comes straight from the CD.) They're

performing a selection of pieces by Schubert, J. S. Bach, Mozart, Grieg,

Widor, Massenet and Rossini, plus two "traditional" songs - "All Through

The Night" and "Rule Brittania". I like organ music, but this wasn't one

of the keepers!
