Default Re: Sales of CDs and DVDs

From the link:

On the positive side small declines in large markets usually mean massive growth in the new markets that are replacing them - in this case digital music and video.

Right but this is not necessarily monetizeable...

26% is probably their top-range forecast but is also fairly significant decline (taking into account an already sizeable decline over past 5 years). Don't think it's wildly optimistic at all for CDs.

The DVD number is much more difficult to forecast imo. My guess is the number is not too far off but we will see a rapid acceleration in decline post 2010.
