Industry economic optimism

I still have a fairly elaborate stereo setup at home. All of my friends who hear it are amazed and always say "Wow, I wish my stereo (or iPod) would sound like that! I had no idea …) But of course none of them do anything about it, they just shove the buds back in their heads. And getting anyone to sit still long enough to enjoy a song that is over 2 minutes long is nearly impossible.
