The CD is the most popular recorded media ever. Presently there are about 600 million CD players currently in existence, and the number of CD discs sold exceeds 12 billion worldwide. Thus, it is difficult to imagine the CD disappearing or being made obsolete. On the contrary, it is hard to imagine the success of any new music format that is not compatible with the CD!
