Anyone with a tight budget and broad taste can answer that one. <G>

Seriously, the buck-a-disc saving mattered to many (including me) during 
that period. Similarly, many chose to save a dollar by buying monaural 
where stereo did not seem to add much.

My LP library is well supplied with bargain versions and monaurals where 
stereo was available.
