I've recently asked a question on meta to which I received four very useful and equally "correct" answers. Each added value; each was helpful to me. Although one questionanswer did receive more votes than the others (8 to 6 to 3 to 2), I'm not sure there really is one answer that is more acceptable than the others. Am I under any obligation to accept an answer, or can I just let it stand as is?

Accepting an answer when multiple "correct" answers
