jukebox

Bar music machine

A jukebox is a coin-operated machine that plays music selections.

Traditional jukeboxes held records and let patrons choose songs by pressing buttons; the term now applies to any device offering music on demand: The bar had an old Wurlitzer jukebox in the corner.

Digital jukeboxes and streaming services have largely replaced the mechanical originals.
