Abstract :
The way people consume music in our days has totally changed as a result of the current developments in hardware and software, as well as the evolution of the Internet. People do not buy CDs or records anymore. Nowadays, people store music data on their disks and listen to music via portable devices (i-pods, mobile phones etc.). However, the advent of Web 2.0 foretokens colossal changes in the fields of music production, distribution and management. Cloud computing, social networks and web-based operating systems are some of the recent trends that affect these fields and introduce a new era beyond MP3.
