Seems CD's are to be replaced by 'slotmusic' cards.

Doesn't feel like a great leap forward, especially if the bit rate is low. And a shelf full of those isn't going to look cool is it?

How unspeakably...
Crap.
The horror
The idea has been reviewed very effectively over at Harry's Place.
Mmmmm
Can you imagine just how good music will sound if it ends up being mastered to sound good on a mobile bloody phone?
There's precedent
I believe in the 60s, singles were often mastered to sound good on the tinny little transister radios that were the minuscule ancestors of the ghetto-blaster.
I recall
I think, from the veritable Word podcast, that Motown records all had tambourines as they could be heard above the general din aroundf jukeboxes.
It's all the same thing really but modern technology allows you to really overdo it. So they do.
Has anybody
bought an e-book yet??
Only this one

Relax...
...even if CDs were abolished tomorrow, there's still enough of them around to fulfil our music needs for the rest of our days.
