i pretty much know whether I like it or not on first listen - for those "difficult" albums, i shelve them and go back to it at a much later date to see if my tastes change

...before you think you've got your money's worth?

times played does not equal to pleasure from listening to it - i like to keep my listening as varied as possible, which means I don't repeat that much on an album when I first get it

...in general? (Meaning, how many times do you listen to any album in general)

in general, about 10 times, after 20 times, it starts getting over-played and i feel a bit fed-up of it
