Television sets were not generally available until the late 1940s so nearly all music was either broadcast on radio or sold on records. Records were large, heavy plastic discs that turned at 78 rpm so you could only listen to 3 minutes of music at a time, hence the length of the typical pop song.
In the early 1940s many people also attended live performances where singers and bands would play in movie theaters, concert halls, and dance ballrooms. WW2 restrictions on travel contributed to the demise of live performances; attendance also fell due to the number of people serving in the military and then trying to raise families postwar, as well as increased costs of staging live shows.
By 1948 TV sets were becoming available, and the first long-playing vinyl records and FM radios started to be sold, so music listening started to become more what we know today.
