Well, it's like you said earlier, there will be a transitional period, so I'm still going to buy CDs, I still own a video recorder and some VHS tapes that for some reason haven't been put into DVD format. My niece thinks it's amusing that when I was her age (14) I had to physically turn my tv over by hand and we only had 4 channels!!!!!
I guess downloads are the future, especially for the youngsters, but for us guys who like the cover art, booklet,picture disc just as much as the music, it will be a huge loss for sure ............
Apparently Sony nor RCA is one of those major labels cutting back. A Duets albums is indeed being discussed by Core Media Group (formerly CKX) with Sony.
