It will happen. The market for Big Band and postwar orchestra was my parents’ generation, and they’re vanishing. Most don’t spend time listening to their old favorites, or even have a way to do it.

When I was young and pretty, and had my first apartments, I’d take daily walks and encounter 78 rpm records and albums, in garage sales and estate sales (often the same thing). A local collector told me, if I figured out how to sell 78s on eBay and have them get there in one piece, tell him what it is. :^)

Landfill. Once an artist dies, it’s just a matter of time.

Silly nonsense. 300 years and the clock hasn't even started ticking on Bach, Beethoven & Mozart. ๐Ÿ˜‚
