Record players enjoyed popularity through to the early 1980s, when they were largely replaced by Compact-Disc (CD) players. In the present day (2000s), record players still enjoy popularity in limited niche markets: high-end home audio (in the belt-drive configuration), and DJ-ing (in the direct-drive configuation).
