Why do some records and cd's go out of print? I know alot of people who spend a lot of money tracking down rare records that you can't buy in the shops anymore. If people still want them... wouldn't it make sense to keep sellng them and keep making the money!

it's all supply and demand, why would a record company continue to print records and cds they don't sell? they wouldnt make money
It costs more money per unit to make 100 records than 1000

I was fortunate enough to find most of the songs I wanted, when I replaced alot of my albums to cd. There is however an album thats been out of print for along time that I wish I could find. Its from 1975, the album cover was yellow with the picture of the group on front. Its title was the name of the group...The Faragher Brothers. Still searching for that one!

There is probably just not enough interest or no one owns the rights to produce them anymore.
