the truth is in the details

I don't get it. At the beginning of the 90s, they made most of the general public buy CD players by not releasing most major label albums on vinyl. At the same time they re-issued a wack of old records on CDs so that people would replace their records with CDs, thus basically buying their entire record collection again on CD. So why are there still albums that you can't really find on CDs? I mean it's extremely hard to find the first Madness, Selector, and Joe Jackson album, along with the entire Bad Manners catalog (yes, I know that most of these are 80s ska bands, but that was just what's in my collection and what I've been listening to recently) on CD. And my hard I mean that I don't think they exist at all. Maybe I'm completely wrong and it's just in Toronto that I can't find these albums. Who knows. I just wanted to vent about that. see ya
