Six months or so after getting a video recorder, many early buyers apparently lost interest in obtaining videos to watch on it. The trade of businesses selling and renting videos is still buoyant, because the number of homes with video recorders is still growing. But clearly, once the market for video recorders is saturated, businesses distributing videos face hard times.
Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the conclusion above?
(A) The market for video recorders would not be considered saturated until there was one in 80 percent of homes.
(B) Among the items handled by video distributors are many films specifically produced as video features.
(C) Few of the early buyers of video recorders raised any complaints about performance aspects of the new product.
(D) The early buyers of a novel product are always people who are quick to acquire novelties, but also often as quick to tire of them.
(E) In a shrinking market, competition always intensifies and marginal businesses fail.


OA is D.. Just don't understand.. the conclusion is once the market for VR is saturated ==> Business Distribution videos will face hard times..

So to weaken it i have to look for something that tells me that business will not face hard time.. B clearly tells me that.. then how come D?? PLEASE EXPLAIN

fruti_yum, You have the answer already.

Yes, You need to say that business will not flatter.

Look at the answer D , "Early Buyer " , this restrictions creates "Sample" for generalization. Which will be always wrong funda in GMAT. Hence it weakens the conclusion.

Also if you quickly tire of your "mobile phone" which you currently have, what will you do
? You tend to buy new one right ? You will not simply throw it out or recede from using it.( Which may not be applicable down the line 10 years later !!!! who knows). so you buy new one and business is keep evolving.

Hope I made the point clear.
