You do realize that if you OWN your media you can just hand over a thumbdrive or send the files directly to a friend? CDs are also cheap to burn. You can build an entire library for the cost of a couple months' streaming access. You are parroting marketing and those words are hollow. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [+] lud@lemm.ee 13 points 2 years ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (4 children) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] EngineerGaming@feddit.nl 4 points 2 years ago (2 children) I would find having all my music on streaming EXTREMELY inconvenient. Not only can you lose access to some of it, not only are you paying continuously, but you're also locked to a specific player for this all. I do use streaming, but only for discovering new tracks. I do have a bigger collection on streaming - the tracks I like but not particularly so - but the main collection is just more convenient to have locally. I didn't download it all at once so no inconvenience here - just download a song as soon as I realize I like it enough. Also even if I could afford to pay for my media, I'd rather buy digital DRMed downloads rather than CDs if DRMless aren't available. Not to actually use, but to correspond to the copy I do use. Specifically because it's indeed impractical, can be hard to get and and will be ripped anyway. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] GhiLA@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) people on the sidelines who just downloaded 20 albums from SoulSeek "You guys should argue more" permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] EngineerGaming@feddit.nl 1 point 2 years ago TBH I mostly get mine from Youtube, although have recently tried Soulseek. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee -4 points 2 years ago I ain't the fuckface whisperer. permalink fedilink source parent
