This post leads me to a question: Why is the cheapest medium (CD's) the most expensive, even in indie recording (compared to vinyl and tapes). In my mind, EP vinyl, the cheapest way to buy music (around here) is probably the hardest and most expensive to produce, followed by tapes. Is this true? Why do people release music on vinyl for cheaper than CDs or tapes? thanks...
