Abstract

[Extract] The only way to experience music in earlier centuries was to experience it live. However, the new technologies of the twenty-first century are influencing the ways in which people are able to experience and interact with music (Avdeeff, 2012; Nill & Geipel, 2010; North, Hargreaves, & Hargreaves, 2004; Sloboda, Lamont, & Greasley, 2009). The way individuals are able to access, acquire, and store music, has changed due to the popularity of digital music (Kibby, 2009). Consequently notions of 'music consumption' have shifted (Molteni & Ordanini, 2003). One of the most striking changes is of course that music is now easily accessible for free, via a mixture of legal and illegal sources.
