General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

music files on hard drives are very compact

Every week or so, I back up the files on my MusicPC, my wife's PC and my personal PC. Everything fits on a 1.5 Terabyte USB drive which is about the size of a hardback book.

Those music files came from 2500-3000 CDs and a few LPs. Those CDs and LPs take up a lot of room. I'm continually rearranging them to fit my latest purchases into the cabinets we built for them.

Before you discard CDs and LPs, you might consider making music files from them. PC audio is more about learning some new things than about buying high priced audiophile gear. It might fit with your movement toward simplification.
