Death of the Industry

This is Press, Pause, Play blog round two, looking a little more about the A/V and Tech industry in specific.

The digital age has over saturated the amount of professionals at varying levels in the work place. Competition is fierce, one person can charge $5 for his services and turn out an amazing mass of widgets for $5. These widgets are inherently garbage, but he did them cheap.
