Don't hold me to these figures but I believe the recent UK sales
have been along the following lines:

2001 - £178,000 (approx)

2005 - over a £million!

Low and behold Keith, on an Aussie TV news channel tonight I started
recording to hard drive just as the announcer was stating that 178,000
records were sold in the year in Aussie 5 years ago. Current sales were
said to exceed 1,000,000/year and demand is climbing. The new buyers
were said to be young people who are replacing their CD collection with
vinyl.

How many CDs per year are sold in Australia?

They went on to say there is only one press operational in Australia to
meet demand.

Wonder how many CD production plants there are.

Slainte,

Jim
