Audio saves film(only slightly tongue in cheek)

[pixelthis]

Film is hanging on by its toenails. At the turn of the century
a billion rolls a year were sold, now its more like 30 million.
Whats this got to do with audio? Well, a small cadre of
film buffs have "developed" (sorry) saying they prefer film,
and have all sorts of descriptions, and excuses, like film catches
light better, etc . HAS a better "texture", and so on.
SO LETS SEE...
CD debuts, kicks turntable butt, a few years later turntables rebound,
for all sorts of wacky reasons.
With the success of turntables, sleezy marketing types push
tube amps, primarily SET, which was obsolete in 1934.
AND A VERY SMALL group start singing the praises of CRT.
And the sleezy marketing types working for the dying film industry, they are not too slow, they now use the same marketing to push film
(or get rid of the remaining stock) that sleazy electronics marketers use, like a lot of descriptive words to describe the
"superiority" of film, etc, a lot they stole from your typical "audiophile", who can pull mumbo jumbo outta their hiney
like nobodies business to brag about their 5 watt SET monoblock.
Nice to know that all of the marketing experise that has saved
so much obsolete tech from the graveyard in the audio field is now being used to save obsolete tech in the photography field.
Great contribution on the part of the hot air devisions of audio
marketing..
If marketing types can sell a five dollar power cord for hundreds
by putting it in a new box, selling film ought to be easy
