Supermarket giant Sainsbury's have revealed that they are to stop selling CDs online.

From March next year they will no longer sell CDs, DVDs, blu-rays, books, games or consoles through their website instead opting to sell the digital-only versions of these products.

They will still be selling entertainment products in their stores across the country.

A spokesperson for the store said: "We see that the online opportunity lies in digital products, with physical music, books, games and films sold in our stores. This move is in line with wider industry trends towards on demand entertainment, and part of our focus on the fast-growing download and streaming market.

"At the moment we offer music for downloading but we will continue to develop our on-demand entertainment offer."

Sainsbury's currently have an MP3 downloading site which was launched back in May 2012.
