I think a lot of the reason why more people don't go the PLA route NOW is due to prestige factor. Back when BAin4weeks first came out (or at least when I discovered it), most state colleges/universities only allowed you to CLEP out of a very limited number of classes. 4 or 5 or something insanely low like that. The Big 3 allowed more than that AND they looked like diploma mills (Charter Oak still does...). Online classes were a thing that didn't happen except with cheap community colleges.
But now more B&M universities are offering online classes and offering alternate credit sources to boost their numbers. They can see the direction of the future and that's the end of the tuition bubble. I'm not sure it'll pop suddenly like the housing market did, but it'll definitely deflate and it already seems to be doing so to some extent.
