This simply is not true. Digital music is the future - CDs replaced records. Digital copies have replaced CDs. People just aren't buying CDs in numbers sufficient to justify their production.

CDs are made from oil (a non-renewable product) and they require fuel to transport.

Yes - lots of people steal downloads, but that has nothing to do with CDs being discontinued. People made copies of cassettes & CDs for their friends for fourty years - probably far more albums were stolen this way than will ever be downloaded illegally. The discontinuation of CDs and analog music formats is the natural progression of technology.

All of these discontinued items can be legitimately purchased in digital format on Amazon, iTunes and other digital music retailers.
