Ford says starting next year it will start introducing new cars without a CD slot, offering instead a USB connection point for Apple iPods and other digital music storage devices.
The car firm says the new version of its new Focus will come without a CD player.
Ford sited the significant drop in CD sales as a contributing factor in their decision.
Its latest cars already offer connection points for digital media devices as either standard or optional equipment.
A spokesman for the company says where customers still want CD players, that option will be available.
He said Ford will respond to feedback and demand.
Ford is the first automaker to replace C-D players for digital music technology.
