I did it as a kind of exercise, to see if I could be less indulgent and impulsive and only buy those records that truly interested me. To be honest, after February, I gave up on the idea and only bought when I was interested enough to do so and had the funds. In any case, LP buying has become less impulsive and more thoughtful, which I think is a good thing.
