My take is that now that the DJ-driven demand for vinyl is falling off,
and
sales are already dropping preciptiously, the hype will trail off.


No Arny, you've got that all wrong (unless you are
*distorting* again which, of course, is highly
likely) - it's CDs that are disappearing rapidly.


Not in terms of sales percentages.


No? I would have thought a fall in sales revenue of
19.8% in just three months was a pretty good indicator:

OK Keith, so you can't tell the difference between a
sales percentage for vinyl, and an indicator of an
ongoing transition from one form of digital media to
another form of digital media.


Not my problem!


I think it is, unless you are deliberately
obfuscating/distorting or, as others imply, failing to
read properly or grasp the meaning of my post - my point
was that it is CDs which are disappearing and I provided
evidence.


I reproduced my OP on the topic above, and it doesn't even mention CDs.
Therefore Keith, your attempt to introduce CD sales, given that CDs are a
form of media that I didn't even mention, is an obvious example of a red
herring argument. It's just another one of your an intentional attempt to
mislead the discussion from its origional intent.

The original intent was to make the point that LP sales have dropped
preciptiously in the US in the past year - about 33%.
