This year my appetite for new music was not as voracious as the previous couple of years. As much as I enjoy new music, my collection is reaching a saturation point and my purchases are becoming more discriminatory. Still, I managed to amass 44 new CDs.
Some of these are compilations of songs I downloaded from iTunes. A handful of them are soundtracks I acquired from friends. A half dozen or so are mixed CDs by Cory Q. However, looking at the list now I'm surprised at how many of these new acquisitions have simply faded into the collection. There are none that I actively dislike, but more than half of them simply don't get listened to outside of random play on the iPod. There are a few standout albums though.
