I went looking for data and it seems cd sales are on the decline again. So my info is outdated. It looks like it was trending younger with Taylor swift and k-pop titles as the top sellers. It appears to be less of a revival and more of a fad.

It looks like vinyl is still growing in 2026 even while cd decrease again.

It’s a bummer since artist can get a bigger cut of physical media sales and cd are easier to make than a records.
