Frakenwaffle Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Hey dudes, I'm writing an extra credit paper for my microeconomics class, and I want to be based on the rise and fall and the recent comeback of vinyl and people's certain desires for it. Of course I will need facts and figures, and I was hoping the most insightful people on the subject could help me out, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chamb117 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 i would start with a google search. i don't think any of us here have any specific numbers for you. maybe travis can give you some firsthand insight as to what it's been like at hot topic the past couple of years. i think a couple of key terms you may want to use in your paper are "feedback loop" and "secondary market"...
