Me neither, but I do mind paying a subscription for a shitty service that does not let me actually own anything and changes the rules every year.
I have no clue what you're talking about. I've had Spotify premium for 5-ish years and nothing has randomly changed. The UI changed a bit here and there but nothing you couldn't ignore if you wanted to and that's it. I get all the music on the planet and podcasts, it's a good deal if you ask me
That's why we pay for a good service instead. The subscription is a fraction of a cost you'd get from paying to "own" the media, and it's not like you still can't combine the two either. It's not one or the other.
And this is why I buy vinyl.
How do you combine a subscription service with having ownership of the media? If you're not happy with Spotify just got to iTunes or the likes and buy the individual songs. Or what am I missing here?
