Selling CDs was considered one of the most lucrative business in the past when there was no Internet or when the Internet was not much available in many household in my country. I remember there was a time when people used to purchase cards for dial-up Internet connections and as far as I know, there were not many websites where you could download free files from the Internet. I think this is also one of the main reasons why many paid to upload websites have been earning money. Many people upload many windows files, program files, games, and other important softwares required for a computer. Now people no longer buy CDs from market rather they first search for these files on the Internet and download the files to their computers using the Torrent softwares. I have myself been using Torrent softwares to download many softwares, games, and movies that required me to buy CDs in order to install them. I think this is one of the main reasons why I think CD selling business has been suffering a bit. However, still there is a market near my house where you can find CDs of many games, softwares, computer programs, etc. So, do you think that CD selling business has become less lucrative due to this reason?
