I respect your opinion, Mr. J., but keep in mind that the Carpenters had a NUMBER ONE ALBUM in Japan in 2010! So I disagree with you about the overall sales of Carpenters product to be declining to much of a degree at all. Maybe in the States, but they're still huge in Japan and other places.
There's certainly demand for the Carpenters outside of the core A&M/Carpenters people here on this site.
