Answer: There is no specific date for the complete discontinuation of CD production. Although the rise of digital music and streaming services has caused a significant decline in CD sales, CDs are still produced and sold in many places.

Explanation:

CD (Compact Disc, referred to as CD), translated as compressed optical disc or small optical disc, is an optical medium used to store audio, video and data. Since its first introduction in 1982, CDs have become the main method of music and data storage due to their higher storage capacity and better sound quality.

However, with the rise of digital music and streaming services such as Spotify, Apple Music, etc., and the popularity of various portable devices such as smartphones and tablets, the frequency of CD use has dropped significantly. Many people began to choose to use these services to listen to music instead of buying CDs. This resulted in a significant drop in CD sales.

Despite this, CD production has not been completely discontinued as of 2021. There are many places, especially music lovers and collectors, who still buy and use CDs. Additionally, some artists still choose to release CDs because they believe CDs provide a premium audio experience and the physical form of the CD serves as a collectible.

So while the rise of digital music and streaming services has changed the way people listen to music, music in physical media still has its own unique value and meaning.
