I either read an article about this or heard it on NPR - sales are going up
on CDs because of downloading. People are becoming music fanatics again and
they are using the downloading process to audition music.
If I recall, there was a record shop owner in some college town who was
afraid that since most students were downloading music his business would
drop. It did immediately but is now picking up quickly. What more, the
college kids are buying vinyl because they appreciate the format's sound
and packaging.

wish I could remember where I heard/read it.

Dunno bout concerts, but I recently read that most major record
companies are saying that cd sales are going up for a change.
