Check eB*y Earl, there are a ton of complete operas listed and going
for peanuts! Most of them are in mint condition as well. You can also
often times find them in used record stores if they have any classical
selection at all. Estate sales are also a good place to find old opera
stuff, again for peanuts I have roughly 30 complete operas on LP that I
purchased within the last 3 or 4 years.

Doro,
Agreed on the convenience. I still invest in LPs both because of the audio
quality, and I can get good discs pretty cheaply. Some haven't been
transferred to CD.
I am about to go on an opera binge, so it will probably be CD for that. Not
much available on LP, unless you count collections of arias, etc.
A good (read: not cheapo) CD player (and SACD) and well-produced CDs can sound
non-fatiguing. But most people don't own those.
