I believe that the fallacy began with a quote from the manager of a Virgin Records store in London who said that LPs were outselling CDs at his store. Clearly, even if he was correct, extrapolating this to the broader market is pure fantasy.
Number of sales: CD vs LP
One of my friend recently told me that the overall sale of LPs surpassed CDs. Can it be true? I thought he was joking, but somehow he was serious.
Well, MP3s and music download certainly has not helped to boost the CD sales, but I think the overall LP sale is still a fraction of CD sales.
Anyway, I've seen steady increase in used LP sales. I could get decent ones at $1~3 about 6~7 years ago, but now it is more like $3~6.
