Due to people buy music online(digital stores) and people leaking albums for people to download for free made couple of distribution companies (like Bayside) and majority record stores go down.
that really wasn't the problem it was Tower was in debt and was trying to make it up by charging more for product. before they filed bankruptcy they were still trying to get $17.99 a CD when you could get the same music elsewhere for $9.99 or $35 bucks for a $15 dollar DVD. Bayside was actually making money and keeping tower alive until towers bad retail moves pulled it down with it
I produced an album called "Hood Operas" by a group that I put together called Nine-Eleven. Big Hollis is the only one that I can rermember that had a lot of material being distributed through Bayside.
