I've got an "F" and a "C" and I got a "K" too And the only thing that is missing is a bitch like "U"

Wtf.

Artists need to do something about this.

Just produce LESS CD’s thats it.

What will they do? Companies and artists have realized that streaming is the most important path to market yourself and your music. Social media + streams equals your power and relevancy on the industry so focusing on making people buy CDs sounds almost obsolete for this era in music. The newer generations are NOT interested in buying music when they have it all on stream services, and labels know that.

To sum it up, trying to keep up with CDs production and sales is a waste of time and money. CDs will be a collectors item just like vinyls are now.

The good old days:messga:

I remember being home alone when I was like 11 and then decided to run to a shopping mall, and to my suprise, it was the same day Born This Way got released. I saw both the Special and Standard edition in the store and ran back home to get my savings to get the Special edition:messga: It was... so special:messga:

I don’t like where music is going these days:saladga:

they're not that expensive tbh, an album on amazon is about £5ish

vinyls are way more expensive but they're increasing in popularity

Considering Kylie's main market isn't America at all, where Best Buy is, she doesn't have to worry. She can still slay without one chain in the US.

Fellow Muricans, what are y'all crying for?? Overreaction much?

Best Buy is not the only retailer that carries CDs :toofunny:

There's Walmart, Target, FYE, and local indie record stores. This is actually opportunity for y'all to support your local business, go to those indie record stores and roam for hours, the store keeper or store owner most probably understand about music better and friendlier than those people in uniform that didn't want you to be there cos they are sick to work in retail :giggle:
