But the wickedness which I now begin to expose is immeasurably aggravated by the motive which prompted it. Not in any common lus

t for power did this uncommon tragedy have its origin. It is the invasion of a virgin Territory, compelling it to the hateful embrace of Slavery; and it may be clearly traced to a depraved longing for a new slave State, the hideous offspring of such a crime, in the hope of adding to the power of slavery in the National Government. Yes, sir, when the whole world, alike Christian and Turk, is rising up to condemn this wrong, and to make it a hissing to the nations, here in our Republic, force -- aye, Sir, FORCE, -- has been openly employed in compelling Kansas to this pollution, and all for the sake of political power. There is the simple fact, which you will vainly attempt to deny, but which in itself presents an essential wickedness that makes other public crimes seem like public virtues.” - Senator Charles Sumner, 1856

B) the debate over slavery and its extension into the western territories

In the United States Senate, The Caning of Charles Sumner, or the Brooks–Sumner Affair, occurred on May 22, 1856. , In this speech, representative Preston Brooks (D-SC) criticized Senator Charles Sumner (R-MA), who was an abolitionist, in vengeance for the expression given by Sumner in which he relentlessly criticized slavery and slaveholders, including a relative of Brooks.

Two days later Brooks brutally beat and almost killed Sumner and it brought a clearly polarized response from the Americans on the question of the expansion of slavery in the United States.

It has been considered representative of the "breakdown of reasoned discussion that ultimately led to the American Civil War.

nignag [31]

Answer:

The music industry has shifted from a Markup/Peak market cycle to a Distribution/Contraction cycle market

Explanation:

There are four phases in the market cycle.

1. Accumulation or Expansion

2. Markup or Peak

3. Distribution or Contraction

4. Markdown

- Accumulation occurs as a result of economic growth in the market

- Markup or Peak occurs when the buying pressure reaches it highest level.

- Distribution or Contraction occurs when there is weakening in the market, that is, weakening of the market but not total collapse.

- Markdown occurs when the market has sung down to the lowest possible point, that is when there is total collapse of the market.

The market has a cycle that rotates round like a cycle. The moves from Accumulation to Markup then to the Contraction cycle then to Markdown market cycle.

From the scenario given, the music industry was at the Markup cycle market during the time when the music industry could sign multi-year contracts with artists and sell copyright protected music through establish distribution channels.

However, the music industry experienced the Distribution or Contraction market cycle when there was a decline in the number of Compact Disc sold as a result of a shift to digital format and rise of internet technology which allowed sharing of music over a peer-to-peer network without visiting the music shops to buy Compact Disc from recognized distributors.
