as a string of companies enter the 'pay to download' music market, could this mean the death of music cd's ?
the likes of soft drink manafacturers pepsi and coca-cola, are forging strong partnerships with record labels and IT companys to provide streaming and downloadable music at cheap prices enticing consumers, that its fast, efficent, convenient, and cheap, to download then buy.
but could this and a combination of conventional P2P methods wipe out CD's totally like the vynl ?

i think we will see lower sales of CD's in europe if the pay to download music era gets a strong start as it has done in the US, whether it will impact record labels profits enough that producing CD's becomes economically unviable, remains to be seen.
