The document traces the evolution of digital music from compact discs to streaming services. It discusses how compact disc players became mainstream in 1982 but were disrupted by the rise of personal computers and the Internet in the 1990s. MP3 players like the iPod began gaining widespread adoption in the early 2000s. Digital music sales have declined as consumers shift to streaming models provided by services like Spotify and Pandora. The document predicts that digital music consumption will continue moving to an "access model" rather than a purchase model, culminating in the development of a hypothetical "Celestial Jukebox" streaming service.
