You’re dead on regarding a constant state of crisis, and the format wars. I’m of the generation that went from vinyl to tape to CD to mp3 to streaming. Who knows how many more I’ll see.
One nugget I was meaning to chuck in here but didn’t: though Pearson was (in 1936) a local UK newspaper business, it started in the late 1800s as a civil engineering firm, and built tunnels under the Thames. You know, tunnels – they made bridges obsolete.
