i think you've got a massive point. loopy shit is just not selling. its time to re-evaluate and re-assess. mp3's/cdj's - they're all playing a massive part. maybe vinyl is finally on it's last legs - perhaps a few more years left and then that's it.
i just cant help but feel that the only place buzzin right now is the internet, but artists and labels are too slow to capitalise on it and find a way to make the money to keep their heads above water.
