where do they find the time, or indeed the stamina,  to listen to them?


They don't.  They just magically 'feel better' owning them.  I once estimated how much of my music collection I actually listen to: 5% is probably a massive over-estimate.  It's almost literally a form of madness...

My whole collection is Mp3, I listen extensively in the car and think I must get through the whole collection once a year.
