Description: "Where Have All The Good Times Gone? charts the decline of classical music, the emergence of 'high fidelity', LPs, stereo cassettes and, in 1982, the revolution that arrived with the compact disc. The 1990s ushered in a period of profound crisis and uncertainty in the industry, encapsulated in one word: Napster. Barfe shows how the almost infinite amounts of free music available online have traumatic and potentially disastrous implications for the industry."--BOOK JACKET.
