Remember the days of Napster, MP3 downloads, and burning CDs for your friends?
Saturday, 7 March, 2026

In this episode of the GetConnected Podcast, Mike Agerbo sits down with author Cam Gordon to explore the fascinating early history of music on the internet and how it transformed the Canadian music scene. Cam’s new book “Track Changes: The Origin Story of Canadian Music on the Internet (1990–2010)” dives into the chaotic and exciting years when technology disrupted the music industry forever. From Napster and file-sharing networks to the rise of digital downloads and online communities, we explore how artists, fans, and the industry adapted during one of the biggest technological shifts in music history. If you grew up with MP3 players, LimeWire, Kazaa, CD burners, or early music blogs, this episode will take you right back to the digital frontier.
