Sadly because people listen to music/video though Spotify et al....on phones and bluetooth. The good old day are gone and yes there is a revival of sorts but your comments say otherwise. I would love to get a simple hifi with a turntable, Naim amplifiers and matching speakers but 'she who must be obeyed' won't be having it. So I am stuck with CDs on a ratty CD player and music from Youtube with constant adverts interrupting Beethoven or Bruce Springsteen.
