Jukeboxes also drop all of their contents.

Playback
Right clicking on a jukebox while a music disc is selected, or having a hopper insert a disc into one, inserts the disc and plays music corresponding to the type of music disc used. Right clicking on the jukebox again stops the music and ejects the disc. Music discs play only once before they must be ejected and reinserted. The sound from the jukebox travels roughly 65 blocks in all directions. It supports all available music discs in the game.

Tamed parrots dance when near a jukebox that's playing a disc.

Looping
In the Bedrock Edition, jukeboxes disable adjacent hoppers when a music disc is playing inside them. Because the hoppers are reenabled when the song ends, a system of hoppers can be used to automatically eject and reinsert the disc when it's finished playing, causing it to loop.

Redstone component
Active jukeboxes give off a redstone signal when a redstone comparator is placed directly behind it or through an adjoining block; its strength depends on the ID of the inserted disc. The following table shows the redstone strength output for each disc.

$$, they also emit a redstone signal when any music disc is played inside.

Fuel
Jukeboxes can be used as a fuel in furnaces, smelting 1.5 items per block.

Trivia



 * C418 has the Steve skin with a jukebox for a head, likely because it was he who made most of the music for Minecraft.
 * The use of a diamond as part of the crafting recipe might be a reference to how Edison phonographs have diamond-tipped needles.
