Sometimes the rate that technology changes can be simply astonishing, no?
Remember music tape cassettes and video cassettes? Where are they now? Rendered obsolete by the CD and DVD, that’s where.
It’s not that the tape cassette was poor technology, it’s just that as technology in this field continued to advance, new products came on the market that were, faster, simpler...better. And the process never stops.
Since the advent of the USB flash drive, CD sales have plummeted by around 50% since their turn of the millennium peak.
Looking ahead, at the leading edge of technology in other areas, are we about to see the demise of the internal combustion engine—replaced by more efficient battery power?
Maybe, when technology reaches the point where electric cars can travel more than 150 kilometers without having to be recharged. In the meantime, great strides are being taken with existing gasoline and diesel engines to produce more fuel-efficient vehicles.
