(Banana 101.5) After it virtually killed off the cassette tape and the short lived mini-disc, the compact disc may be dead within two years according to industry insiders.

According to Side Line Music Magazine, the shelf life of the CD is set to expire before 2013. The magazine reports that most major labels are planning to stop producing the little shiny discs that were all the rage in the 80′s, and replace them with streaming and digital download options.

Most of these plans are set to take effect at some point in 2012, with the only CD's still available being limited edition prints � which will only be made for major artists. more on this story
