A Jukebox is an interactive block used to play Music Discs. It was added in Alpha 1.0.14 on July 30, 2010.
Mechanics
If a player interacts with a jukebox while a music disc is held in their hand, the disc is placed into the machine, and the music corresponding to that disc begins playing. Interacting with the jukebox again will stop the music and eject the disc. Music discs will only play its song once completely before they must be ejected and re-inserted. Sounds from the jukebox travel roughly around 75 blocks, but the distance is different vertically.
Jukeboxes can be smelted, which will yield 1.5 items per jukebox. However, this is somewhat wasteful as the Wood Planks and Diamond used to craft the jukebox are far more valuable than any other furnace fuel sources.
