When you buy music the old fashioned way, in a shop, you find that the last few years the space dedicated to CD's is down. Shops have dedicated the lost space to DVD's who have a bigger margin and are currently more popular.
When you want to buy classical music it is nowadays hard to find shops that have it at all. This is due to the high price and the relatively small turnover.
People have a certain amount of money available for luxury. DVD and CD are similar products and you buy one or the other from said budget.
Thanks,
Gerard
