“I probably cut the price of my music buying in half.”

Finger, 25, buys about 30 record albums a year. He also buys about 12 blank cassette tapes a year which he uses to record 24 albums he borrows from friends (two full albums

The albunis he gets by taping cost the record com- panies about $200 in lost rev- enue a year.

“Blank cassettes have been booming for the last three years,” says Uwe Schnack, manager of Vancouver's A and B Sound. “Sales in the Jast two years have doubled.”

Sales of pre-recorded tapes have almost quadrupled this year,he says, because of new marketing techniques: they’re no longer kept in locked display cases but now are in open racks.

Cassette tapes now ac- count for roughly one-third of the record business. At the same time, 1981 record al- bum sales in Canada dropped by 40 per cent from 1980

sales figures, This decrease appears to be linked to the increase in sales of blank tapes.

A recent survey by the Warner Communications Record Group showed that 45 per cent of the 2,300 people aie borrowed records

cassette recorded can buy high-quality 90-minute cass- ettes for less than $5 each.
