I more meant that the typical demographics of consumers around classical music probably make it a premium market, sorry, I was using shorthand.

That said - because most classical streaming services are really bad there's still a very active market for CDs in classical music, and because the production costs of making new recordings are VERY high (and there is a still a demand for them) it's a really weird market because you've got older catalogue available for rock bottom prices, and newly made recordings at pretty high prices. Hardcore classical music fans are completionists and so if there's a new recording that fills a gap in their library they are often pretty price insensitive.

When I worked adjacent to classical I was often given box sets of new releases. I noticed that one of those (which I still have - and which originally released at around $120) was recently sold on a second hand marketplace I follow for a ridiculous amount of money (hundreds of dollars) because it was on sale for a weirdly short time so you can only get it second hand.
