Valsdad,
I believe they are now considered "collectable". You might be surprised what they fetch! A record store opened up downtown and I had a look last week. I saw a CCR album with a $120 price tag on it!! Not kidding. Old vinyl is $$ now too!
I still have some 8 tracks. Boston/Boston, Allman Brothers/Fillmore, and some others. Most likely if a player was found they would spit pea soup and do a death moan if I tried to play them.
