Downloading, Streaming and Digital Lending
Music in the Digital Age: Downloading, Streaming and Digital Lending James Mason, University of Toronto Jared Wiercinski, Concordia University Introduction The ways in which we listen to music, and the places we look to find it, have changed radically in the last thirty years. In 1980, Philips and Sony proposed the Red Book standard for Compact Discs (CDs),1 with a little help from Beethoven.2 Although it was not the first storage medium for digital audio, the introduction of the CD signaled that the world of digital music was about to go mainstream. The technology behind communications devices such as telephones, radios, and personal computers continued to evolve, and before long, the foundation for the Internet was firmly in place. This multifaceted and complex "global system of interconnected computer networks"3 was about to revolutionize the distribution of sound recordings. As Leiner says, "The Internet is at once a world-wide broadcasting capability, a mechanism for information dissemination, and a medium for collaboration and interaction between individuals and their computers without regard for geographic location."4 Only fifteen years after the introduction of the Red Book, music was being distributed over the Internet. RealNetworks' RealAudio Player, for example, was released in April 1995, and was one of the first media players capable of streaming media over the Internet.5 Now, recorded music is more accessible than ever before. We enjoy unprecedented access to music through a variety of means, including both web access and via mobile devices such as smartphones, the iPod touch 1 British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) News, “How the CD Was Developed,” http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/6950933.stm (accessed March 16, 2010).
