Sorry, I don't think it'll ever go back to those overpriced, gouging highs again, consumers won't stand for it anymore.

The period between the near-end of vinyl to CDs was gauging-hodai for music corporations.
I can't believe how much they charged for albums. From the mid-80s to about 2000 I was always pissed and felt like I was getting ripped off (and I was).
I miss albums, album covers, and liner notes but streaming and music availability online is a much better situation than when record labels controlled everything.

Just the other day the music industry was moaning about piracy, but it clearly isn't having much effect on their sales.
