The public hasn't really been into music CDs for quite some time, but now it's reportedly official. Yes, major record labels will finally cease production of CDs next year.

This definitely doesn't feel like any big news flash, and like any lingering death, it's not surprising when it finally comes.

As SideLine reports, what's left of the major labels will abandon CDs for good by the end of 2012.

As expected, they will shift to downloads and streaming exclusively, which is where music has been moving along anyways.
I know I haven't personally bought a music CD in a music store since about 2002 and the last actual music CD I bought was from a busker on the street to support him.
