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.


AFAIAC and in context, my CD comment was a perfectly valid counter to
the immediately preceding remarks concerning vinyl.


Repeating an intentional distraction doesn't make it less of a
distraction.



Repeating complaints in a UK-centric ng about UK responses to
crossposted US irrelevancies doesn't mean they'll stop either...

Now stop bitching or I'll hijack this thread and turn it into a DAB vs,
DAB+ debate and all you Merkins will get to hear about how Brit radio is
going down the *digital tubes* alongside recorded music and TV
transmissions...
