Music seems to be an important part of humanity. It is something we can’t resist when we hear its melody, and we jive to its beat by unconsciously stumping our feet. We owe the enjoyment we experience when we hear music from the inventors of devices that can emit the music we love o hear. There are many devices invented by man that allows us to listen to our favorite artists and their songs. These devices have been present for quite a long time already and there are new ones available in the market which we can use in listening to music.

It was then a recording device that records certain sounds. It was then modified by experts and then the birth of the tape recorder took place in history. The radio is another device that is used to broadcast music for the people. The main use of the radio during the early 19th century is communication, but nowadays it’s one of the devices we use to listen to music. For us to use audio players, we need a storage medium that can store audio or music. The invention of the tape recorder paved way to another storage medium of recorded sounds like a cassette tape and the compact disc.

During the popularity of the cassette tape, it was widely used for recording all kinds of audio that is used by broadcasting radio stations.

The personal stereo allowed the user to listen to favorite music, wherever he may be and rewind it anytime. It also plays AM and FM radio making it more popular.

The cassette tape experienced certain problems with the personal stereo its film is sometimes stuck in the device, and usually it splits because the film is fragile. Then, the compact disc was invented, which was preferred by most users. It became more popular and it grabbed the glory of the cassette tape which was then rarely used. This means that there should be some modifications to be done and be compatible with the compact disc and CD players were sold in the market. It was also discovered that the compact disc provided a better quality audio, and it was widely used by people. CD players are now seen on radios and there are also portable CD players available. Today, there are smaller compact discs that are used on certain devices.

Because of technology many other audio players were made and this time it became digital just like the popular mp3 player. This device does not require any separate storing device since it was created to have a built in storage device within it. It can store more audio and music depending on its memory capacity. It is more advanced since digital audio players allow the user to organize the files stored in the mp3. It is also handy that is why others prefer it.
