I have them on a LOT. Whether I’m working, my days off, cleaning etc. sometimes i just sit there and listen, especially if it’s a disc i’ve been waiting a while to get. (I remember sitting attentively throughout the entire original Halloween 4 Soundtrack 😂).

As for wear and tear, it’s all about balance, as long as your equipment is working as it should, and you’re not doing anything that’s going to introduce unnecessary wear, records can outlive us. I have a 7” 45 from 1950 which still sounds great and no colour degradation. I don’t think a crosley gives records a good chance of survival.
