From my research I have found that due to the increase in the technological convergence "the computer is no longer their main source of entertainment. This was changed by the introduction of mp3 players. this has then also reduced the amount of people who listen to music, on more traditional formats, like the CD's as only 18% do so. Compared to the 65% who listen to music everyday on their MP3 or iPod this is a large contrast between the two.
In reflection this is relatively the same, in my case, but instead of there being a MP3 player, I use my mobile phone, due to the boost in technological convergence since 2011. the use of CD'S will also be low in my case maybe even lower as I now, have so much access to the music, at my finger tips, meanwhile doing other stuff on my phone,therefor I ring it pointless to use CD'S as they are big, likely to break and tare generally out of fashion.
The findings above are very accurate to what was happening in 2001 as I myself had an MP3 player and a large amount of the music which I had was stored on there, but as time has moved on, this has been replaced by my movie phone.
Copying music from devices to devices is also very important, as in 2009 87% of people surveyed, said this, and they liked the fact that this was so easy to do. and not surprisingly in 2011 this figure was just as high. in modern society it would be that surprising either, intact this figure could have increased, as I don't keep that many CD's and if I have files on my computer I would like to also put then on my phone. on the other hand the file sharing and copying, i do is limited as i download most of my music straight to my mobile, and i am less likely to share it as, its so easily accessible anybody can get it.
Overall the way that we behave with music, via storage and file sharing has changes but it is for the simple season of technological convergence and the development in technology which make music much easier to access and store on devises like the gone compared to less portable gadgets like computers.
