top 10 CDs sold a total of about 350,000 copies last week
yikes – it is going from a decline into a full out tailspin. After the top 10 the numbers don’t really matter, as far as the majors are concerned…the article that I got this stat from said last weeks number 1 fromTaylor Swift sold under 62,000. They did not say what the download stats are – but I suspect the trend reflects the change in consumers buying habits.The day of the cd is entering the same place in history as the 8 track tape and vinyl records…farewell fair cd.
