If you believe Apple, Sony and Sir Richard Branson, the world is abandoning CD music for single song downloads. Today there are more than 20 online services that allow you to legally or illegally download music to your portable music device. The sound – slightly less quality than CD – seems to be good enough for a lot of people.
Once you've seen HD are you going to tolerate the grainy quality of these small screens? Worse yet VOD demands big pipes and so far those only exist in Japan, Korea and a few areas of Europe.
With people now migrating to home entertainment, home theater systems as well as High Def and rich immersion/surround sound; quality may return to our audio/video content.
