The compact disc has completely changed the way we listen and experience music. This has essentially been made possible by technology that utilizes digital figures in the form of ones and zeros instead of the convectional “grooves” that are cut into a traditional vinyl 12′ record. This digitized format of music produces music that is so clear that it is the most accurate representation of the studio sound one can come to. The CD player reads the CD ones and zero by means of laser technology which also minimizes the possibility of “skipping” although this has not totally been eliminated. Consequently, CD sound is of a far superior quality than its aged counterpart the 12′ vinyl record.

When we look at the music realm, we can’t help but marvel at the technological advancements that have come of age. Just 20 years ago, music was solely stored on large cumbersome 18′ vinyl records.
