I've seem some amusing instances of blogger types appearing to act a little overly self-important, but this one TAKES THE CAKE. The chart is the funniest. So digital sales are flat right now, but in 2010 they'll begin an to rise rapidly? Because of blogs? And this is all proven in ONE 130-word article? HAAAAA!!!!!!! Ok, forget that for just one moment and consider one little thing, a question the Savior Bloggers maybe forgot to consider. Is there anything in the article that says the popular albums in the 108 they sampled got popular because of blogs? Maybe, just maybe, the blogs were talking about them for the same reason people were buying them? Because they're good albums with buzz. No, bloggers wouldn't want to consider that possibility, even though it's ... common sense. it would mean that blogs are not the center of the universe.
