For me, it was the late 2000s. At that point, I got all of my music through music downloads in one form or another. I ripped my CD collection to MP3 and then threw out my physical media (something I regret doing now). Many people I knew still listened to CDs in the early 2010s. I think that by the mid 2010s they were much less common.

We started pirating music with 4shared, listening to it on Kboing and YouTube

Cds were always a much better sound format than mp3s and most digital formats plus it retains the integrity of album both physically, as a format and soul wise so never changed. I probably heard my first mp3 in 1996. Mp3s cheapened the music consumption experience when they blew up in the middle of the Y2k era and started to take away from the ritual of going to record stores and magic of slowly developing and evolving music tastes in a natural and progressive way through purely traditional media ( magazines, radio, mtv, tape trading word of mouth, very limited internet info etc) like you typically would in a year like 1997
At least iTunes and Spotify tried to regain the integrity of music in some way. Back then it felt soulless and cheap downloading dozens of albums endlessly through Napster and limewire for free in a crappy format it always ruined the album, it was only good if wanted to sample the bands or if you truly couldn’t pay or splurge on questionable stuff

Cds were also starting becoming uncool in 2006 even if they were still selling, I think they were less popular in the latter 2000s than the 2010s ironically, with the resurgence of vinyl and the popularity of owning stuff on physical media. I remember around that time 2000s lots of people just had iPods and their music collection on their laptops. Lots of their last cds were from 2003-2004.

I just started listening to CDs again by 2018.
Physical media has collectible value. Digital media doensn't.
