how many sac cd's came out per year during the 1998-2003 era compared to now?

[Rusto]

It seems like CD's arent dropping like they used to, i just wanted to verify this

 

[Mr Ceza]

it seems to be a whole lot less now...3-5 years ago everybody who was nobody was dropping CDs.

Seems like everyone has a mixtape now... fuck I'm sick of mixtapes!

People are downloading for free now. But IMO nothing is like owning the actual disc. It give you a more superior feel than to just have a album burnt on a cd-r

^^^that's real, you get to know about the artist you're listening to from the shouts out to the extra artwork and pics to whatever else.

and hell yea fuck a mixtape. artists need to make those real albums.

yeah its like back in the day, there was REAL independent music. people had to cop the cd, so these small, frequent releases were at least breaking even, if not even putting money towards the next project. nowadays, people are just downloading, so its not even worth the money to try and press cds, so they just do "mixtapes." a hip-hop trickle down theory. however, these old cds were worth the money u spent on em, these "mixtapes" that come out now probably get 3 and 1/2 minutes of listening time when and if i choose to listen to them.
