It's great. In the early days I didn't even consider that I'd find out what a lot of the tunes were, let alone be able to get hold of them. Forums like DOA and RDB (RIP) were amazingly useful at getting IDs back then - and Discogs is good now: https://www.discogs.com/group/103 - just a recent example here, which I needed to persist with for a couple of years: https://www.discogs.com/group/thread/1001780
Platinum Breakz and the AWOL LP will always be massive moments in building my collection (thank you eBay and Auction Sniper lol).
Since Covid I'd been going for quantity with DNB - there was so much Neuro funk that I was able to pick up relatively cheaply. Plus ticked off lots of LPs like Wormhole, Clockwork, Metalheadz tin, V Classics, Planet V, Promised Land 2+3.
At the moment I'm concentrating on gradually ticking off some of those long term but high investment ones like the Keen Nottingham. Some of that is due to space. My shelves are full and I've got two bags of overspill stuff that I might get rid of, although I'm pretty reluctant to sell anything if I can help it.
There are two massive ones - Black Rushin Remix and Positive Chaos - that I'm almost a bit scared to eventually get for fear of a 'what now?' feeling.

It is so nice to get a physical record that means so much/you have been lusting over for so many years.
The internet has been great for me to identify tracks that I knew intimately from the early 90's but had absolutely no idea what they were called or who they were by. I have bought so many 12"s in the last few years that I never dreamed I would own because they were so obscure.
