> So after 5 years of 20% declines, it will be a 100% decline in total, which > means in two years no records will be sold at all? :-)) unfortunately percentages don't work like that...20% of 100% leaves 80%, then 20% of that amount leaves...and so on...so we're left with residue of approx 30% of the starting amount, e.g., Britney and Gwen Stefani ------------------------------
