    Rest assured Mark we feel the pain...:)
     
    However, overall we've seen our mail order business stay pretty steady
    while our wholesale business is off a good 10-20%. :( Considering we
    make most (90%) of our money from wholesale things could be better....
     
    But on the up side there are some nice records..

    But why do u, aj listee, think people are buying in smaller quantities?
     
    Personally I've been unemployed for most of this year. And I *know*
    that's gotta be a significant decrease in sales for GrooveDis. ;-)
     
    But on a wider scale, I do think music is one of the first things MOST
    people (not aj listers, of course) would cut out when tightening their
    budget. This has been a tough year for a lot of folks, and I'm not
    surprised to hear that music sales are down as a result.
