This really varies. There are some albums I can tell I just won't like regardless of how many times I listen to it so they get 1 listen. Otherwise, 2 listens...maybe three. By then, even if it is a grower, I should be able to tell if I will like it.

I'm with Jans, I don't judge music based on what I spent.

I can't put a number to this. For example, I've listened to Siamese Dream countless times and I will continue to listen to it for the rest of my life most likely. Albums that go into my "all time classics" list...maybe on average 15-20 times.
