What's to be assed now is a realistic business plan as to
Supply and demand
Realistically how many people are buying albums, mp3's and so forth.
Quality Control? Maybe I think it is more producing amounts for sale more realistic to the consumer demand.
Rather than flooding the market with an overflow of product which realistically probably will not be sold.
That is what could push a business over as well as a shoddy business sense to not assess the previous via projections and sales numbers.

a lot of people are releasing records these days, maybe too much for the music market to digest...as a result, less quantities of individual releases are purchased (as people buy a varied selection) and so it doesnt pay to press limited quantities of records--distributor cannot sustain prodution costs with sales
