So the largest means greatest? I think we could safely assume that %70 of this collection would better be used as coasters and/or target practice.

How many Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown records are included?
I record, mix, and master in my Philly-based home studio, the Spacement. https://linktr.ee/ipressrecord

I like the questions on there that people are asking.

(paraphrase)
"Dude, is there any metal in that collection? Cause if there's not, it's crap."
(paraphrase again)
"If you guys have the first Tool record on LP then this collection is well worth 3mil and somebody better bid."

From info at

Digital preservation would be fine were it not for the fact that CDs have a life-span of just 15 to 20 years. In a few short years, the information on your CDs will just begin to disappear. Forever.
ummm... not exactly.

Best regards,

They want the buyer to GUARANTEE to keep the collection complete. Good luck finding that buyer.

I think they should be selling this through Sotheby's if it's really such a great collection. The fact that they aren't, tells me that it ain't worth what they think it is.
