I think that some/many in the general public have moved to downloads but
fortunately our library sales are still very strong.
I have a 24 year old daughter that used to ask me to get her CDs very often
but not so for the past couple of years. I think that she has only asked for
1 CD so far in 2014.

The CD might not be dying anytime soon, but there is clearly a trend away
from the purchase of physical objects toward the purchase of digital
downloads:
