The Jukebox is a block used to play Music Discs. It uses one texture on top, and the Note Block's texture on all other sides. Jukeboxes can be used as a Furnace fuel, but this is inefficient as it wastes a diamond. When a jukebox with a Music Disc is destroyed, both the jukebox and Music Disc are dropped.

[edit] Playback
Right clicking on a jukebox while a Music Disc is equipped will make it play music corresponding to the type of music disc you used. Right clicking on the jukebox again will stop the music and eject the disc. Music discs only play once before they must be ejected and reinserted. Sound from the jukebox travels roughly 65 blocks in all directions. It supports 12 different songs, including CAT and 13. They are all able to be found in Minecraft's files. "where are we now", the latest addition, was not implemented with the rest due to problems with the spaces in the name. It was later added in 1.4.3, renamed as "wait".

[edit] History
| Alpha | ||
|---|---|---|
| April 2010 | C418 uploaded this video to YouTube. It contains previews of many music tracks that were later added as Records. | |
| SF7 | 13 and cat were the first Records to be added to Minecraft. These were at some point (when?) renamed to Music Discs. | |
| Beta | ||
| 1.2_02 | Before this update, gold 13 music discs were noticeably more common than green cat ones. Now, green cat discs are more often dropped. | |
| 1.6 | Before, an SMP bug existed when a music disc was ejected from a jukebox. The disc would pop out along with a "ghost" client-side disc that only you could see. This ghost disc was not able to be picked up. This bug has now been fixed. | |
| C418 first announced new music discs during Beta 1.8 | ||
| 1.9pre2 | 9 new discs were implemented, adding up to a total of 11 discs, although they are not dropped by any Creepers. These are stored along with the first discs, 13.mus and cat.mus, (which have been decoded as 13.ogg and cat.ogg respectively). Before this update, there were 12 unused Music Files, now only one remains unused, which is the song "where are we now". "Where are we now" was not added with the rest of the new 9 discs because of problems with the spaces in the name. | |
| Official release | ||
| 1.1 | All of the discs except for 11 can be dropped by Creepers killed by Skeletons. Also, they all have the same probability of being dropped now. | |
| 1.4.3 Pre-release | The disc where are we now was renamed to wait and was made available in game. 11 is also available in survival now. It is dropped by Creepers in the same way as other Discs. | |
| 1.5 | 13w04a | Active jukeboxes give off a redstone signal when a comparator is placed behind it; its strength depends on the ID of the inserted disc. |

[edit] Trivia
- Jukeboxes use the same texture as Note Blocks, but the top texture is not the same as the side textures.
- It is possible to place torches on Jukeboxes.
- C418 has the normal player skin with a jukebox for a head, likely because it was he who made the music for Minecraft.
- Pistons cannot push jukeboxes.
- A music disc will continue playing even if the game is paused.
- Unlike Note Blocks, Jukeboxes do not change instruments when placed atop different blocks. Nor does a Jukebox require an air space above itself.
