From what I understood, nobody pays for music any more.
My sister bought a Britney Spears cd back when she was popular. It didn't play easily due to garbage on the cd preventing computer playback. CDParanoia solved it, but still the point was "Dont Buy CDs".
That is the last time I remember anybody I know that bought music CDs. Of course, I know that plural of anecdote is not data, but it is simply the trend I have watched since the start of Napster.
For music, the name of the game is to search for "artist discography" on Piratebay or alike. Its the same for movies and video, and starting to be the same for books as well.
I propose that once full color e-ink displays are cheap, books will be hotter than movies and music.
Hmm. Piracy conjecture:
Let "Price" be "nominal cost, in USD" + "time expended in finding and downloading"
As popularity => infinity, price of digital object => 0$
