Buying CDs and listening to them with a baby at home

Yuen Yuen asked me whether I have time to listen to the new CDs I bought. Indeed, with a newborn baby at home, listening to music becomes a luxury for me. I will usually squeeze some time after I buy them and listen to them one by one. It remains a constant struggle that I don't have the time to listen to all the CDs I got and I still buy them, and the reasons are:

1) you never know when a particular CD will be deleted from the catalogue.

2) sometimes you see a CD that you have been looking for in the past few years;

3) sometimes the CD is on sale

4) sometimes you need to buy CDs just because you feel like it

5) sometimes you see the CD just introduced in a magazine with a very good recommendation

6) sometimes your favourite conductor/violinist/pianist made a new recording

7) sometimes you see a CD with a composer or player you have never listened to but have heard very good comments from various books and magazines

8) sometimes you see a new version of your favourite symphony

So I guess I can never stop buying CDs!
