Interesting how sales revenue is reportedly down so much that vinyl, which is a fraction of a percent by 2000, grows to a visible percentage point or so by today. Cassettes, alas, never had a revival
Good point. Vinyl has seen a slight resurgence in popularity because it's hip, but the long-term decline is easily understood when you consider that pressing plants continue to close down.
I don't know why you'd want to bring back cassettes - total pain in the ass. I still like them for recording because analog tape distorts in a pleasing fashion. But for listening, nope.
