Today's youth is completely different though- in the 1970s there weren't computers in everyone's homes, and MP3s didn't exist. It was all Reel to Reel/8 Tracks, Cassettes, and Vinyl. The folks that are buying Vinyl today are collectors, and not youth. Even though Vinyl sales have been INCREASING because of groups releasing specials for Record store day; I don't think the majority of buyers are young.
Today's youth doesn't care about buying albums, they are only concerned with the newest download to put onto their Ipod. The whole "Concept" of a Concept album is dead. Society is a throw away perspective now. Unfortunately. No one cares about the "Bigger Picture" when it comes to music anymore. If there is good music still being made, it's all underground and no one is listening to it, but except for a few chosen groups.
