The bad news keeps rollin'. Here's a comparison of the music sales for the top ten albums of 2000 vs the top ten of 2007. Quite a sharp decline. The author concludes that this is largely due to market fragmentation. He may be correct but I can't help but feel that music quality has to be a factor here as well. I'd love to see a comparison of the top ten selling albums of 2007 with a great year (say 1973) in music. Could a large part of the dip be due to a poor product?

The second piece is an interview with Trent Reznor who voices his disappointment with the "pay what you think it's worth" model.
So I thought if you take all those away (DRM) and here's the record in as great a quality as you could ever want, it's available now and it's offered for an insulting low price, which I consider $5 to be, I thought that it would appeal to more people than it did.
