The Digital Age has not only changed the way we interact, do business and date but also how we produce and consume music, movies and books. Unless we want to, we no longer have to buy music tapes and CDS, go to cinemas or buy movie DVDs or buy physical books from shops and news vendor stalls.We can now date, attend meetings, study, bank, shop, listen to music, watch movies and read books on our mobile devices from anywhere if we are connected to the internet, thanks to our Digital Lifestyle.
