Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West could be a richer man if he decided to ditch his proposed plans of no longer selling his albums in a CD format.
According to reports, Yeezy may be overlooking the selling power physical albums still have in 2016.
If he does decide to forgo selling physical product, that might cost him a few bucks, at least for now. The medium has seen better days, and though fewer and fewer albums are sold every year in physical form, there are still many who prefer to hold the music they purchase. In 2014, over 140 million CDs were moved in the U.S. (Forbes)
This weekend, Yeezy announced plans to release three albums in a year.
