Research shows that this shift to digital is a net win for the planet. According to the EPA, 100,000 pounds of CDs "become obsolete"â€â€either outdated, useless or unwantedâ€â€every month. CDs are made from polycarbonate plastics and a layer of a reflective metal like silver or gold, and can be recycled by companies that crush and blend them into other plastics. (Rules on whether you can put them in your recycling bin vary from place to place.) Purchasing "Beyoncé" on iTunes instead of as a CD could result in a greenhouse-gas-emissions savings of between 40 and 80 percent, according to a 2009 study for Intel and Microsoft by researchers from a group drawn from Carnegie Mellon University, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and Stanford. The lower end of that estimate assumes users finally burn their music to CDs; the upper end is pure downloads.

 

And let's not forget Beyoncé's complete lack of pre-promotion for the album. Every year, tens of thousands of embargoed CD singles are shipped to radio stations to set the hype machine in motion. (I used to work at a radio station and can attest to the teetering towers of plastic that haunted staff members tasked with health and safety.) A UK report from data collected in 2009 for the British Recorded Music Industry and the Association of Independent Music (UK), shows the current emissions from promo CDs from the indie music sector alone is around 1,700 metric tonsâ€â€equivalent to more than three times the annual energy, water and waste emissions from a single music arena. By completely switching to digital delivery of these releases, the independent music sector could save 1,525 metric tons of CO2 annually. That's a reduction of 86 percent.
