As someone now retired (at least, officially ;D) and certainly no longer being paid to work, I can fully understand that position. I can no longer afford to buy cds in the numbers I once did. I reckon that over the last 20 years-since I started collecting cds-my average monthly purchase was around 10 cds per month. So that works out at about £35.000(or $48.000). So the record companies haven't done too badly from me either ;D
It sometimes "amuses" me to be criticised (as I have been elsewhere) for stating that I prefer to buy a very wide-range of orchestral music rather than multiple sets of a particular piece. I was told that it was perfectly possible to do both, ie to have 20 versions of "The Ring" or Mahler's 5th Symphony AND to buy lots of obscure music.
Yes, it IS.....IF you have a lot more money than I have EVER had ::)
