What's going on with the audio market?

Recent retail sales reports are very bad and I am hearing that sales for audio equipment have been nonexistent over the past few months.  I also see more dealers putting items up for sale here and on other outlets.  Even items that have traditionally sold quickly here are expiring without being sold. 

To what would you attribute the slowdown?  Have you changed your buying habits for audio equipment and, if so, why?

I could add that even when I have some funds for an upgrade, I don't do it, just not in the mood. Perhaps I have a slight brain damage too without really knowing it.

People are becoming a computer dependent digital race. It's a brain damage if you ask me, no doubt.
But there are still many who appreciate natural things including good sound. Problem is that they are losing the power of influence to counteract this degeneration tendency.
One day all this is going to blow the hell up, I guess.

Weed is legal in Colorado and I never heard anyone pay attention to it in Wyoming, Alaska and parts of California.

Definitely. Pound is down big time, uncertainty is huge, the dealers will really want to make sales. I usually buy small stuff including cartridges from them.
