I've lived through the era of tape, through CD, and I find my self in the realm of Mp3. But musical media is constantly progressing, what do you think will come next, are they just gonna beam it into our skulls or something?

This is a method of digitally modelling an audio input in its entirety and then accurately reconstructing it in the playback device. Because only the mathematical model needs to be transferred a standard CD could hold up to 600 hrs of SAC-coded music. |

I hope the future will bring some new physical support, small. Like Minidiscs, etc.

"Ah, that's a DVD sir, they were used before videos, everyone realised that they were far too small and easy to lose whereas videos are so big it's impossible to lose them."

It's already happening with a software called Spotify. No downloading the song, just type in the band/song/album you want, click on the song/album on the results and it starts to play instantly. It's a jukebox of kazillion songs. The company generates revenues with ads, or alternatively if you don't want any ads, you can pay 10 bucks / month, and that's how the record companies get their money.

Marketing and distribution would be down to the point that as soon as Kanye West farts, it's waking you up on your alarm clock by the next morning. |

One of them has an idea which he is almost certain of. He believes that Flash Drives and USB Sticks will be the way of the future. Those thumb drives are getting big enough to hold 16gb and more.. more than an iPod touch.
They are incredibly cheap as well, so I can see instead of cds people will start putting things on flash drives for distribution. You can also build usb into cars fairly easily, making cds almost useless. The quality would be just as good as anything else as well because of the carrying capacity. |

definately the way to go.

I just listened to a vinyl of Led Zep and then Yes for the first time in 15 years, technics turntable, really old fisher amp, bose 901 speakers....it blew my mind. I wasn't expecting it, but it made my hair stand on end.
Yes, it's not transport worthy nor convenient for taking music on the airplane, but it made putting on a pair of wired earplugs and an iPod somewhat as exciting as eating steak with a stuffed nose.
My house is getting some new "old" toys. |
