Who's quibbling?

Losing ground vs. disappearing is semantic quibbling.

61% to 50% is a large decline, and who knows where it will stop.

In any case the trend to ever more expensive "high end" equipment is a symptom of rising disparities of income. 45 years ago when I first became interested in hi-fi you could buy a complete SOTA system of maybe $5000 or say $30,000 in today's dollars. Nowadays you can scarcely buy a single top-end component for that price.
