This is such a fantastic point, I'd like to repeat it - the major advantage to CDs, to record labels, was never digital quality . . . but rather that CDs can be mass-produced and packaged FAR cheaper (something like 5% of the cost) than other methods. But yet prices went up . . . interesting.
F- the RIAA.
