Does anyone ever struggle with whether to hold on to back issues of magazines you've subscribed to for years? I've got boxes of Stereophile and Absolute Sound, for instance, sitting in my basement taking up space. I rarely look at them, but when I do I sometimes find something I'm glad to have, like a record review, or an article or equipment review that's interesting for some reason. But this doesn't happen that often. I find it hard to predict what may be interesting over time, so clipping select pages poses another challenge. I guess I just can't figure out whether it's worth it. So much content seems to find its way online anyway. The idea of "less is more" holds great appeal.
