Nowadays, we can listen to music anywhere we go, but in the past it was very different. Even 100 years ago, most people could only hear music by going to a concert or playing an instrument themselves, which was very common. These days, we have portable music devices which carry thousands of songs and we can listen to them anywhere we like. With internet sites like YouTube, we can find any song almost instantly and download it onto our portable player. It’s a musical paradise compared to even a few years ago.
