Pressing plants are expensive to build. I don't think there are any companies left who make new high volume vinyl presses any more, which leaves only a limited supply of already highly sought after old presses around, which are also probably expensive to recommission given there are few specialists left.

The author seems to assume that more demand will not generate more new pressing plants, but surely it can be expected that these will increase in number again? Why wouldn't they?
