"The kids love it. They're interested in it, and if you can get students where they think they're learning and they're playing, it has hit the magic mark," said Joy Davis, assistant principal at Summerour Middle School in Norcross, Georgia.
You simply can't draw any conclusions concerning the correlation of an audio sales drop with anything, save perhaps a recession. Why? First of all, the economy is a complicated thing, and it's all very nebulous to begin with. What drives the economy? Faith in the economy, for the most part. Second, audio sales are entertainment. Entertainment is very subjective. Who's to say that the general public is getting tired of the latest music scene? I'm not claiming that this is the case, or the previous, or even that the poster's opinion is incorrect. All I'm trying to say is that it's a bit presumptuous to state that "This is why sales dropped."
