@johnglass @mono And now we've circled back to DRM/locked down services and see the above discussion.

@nazokiyoubinbou @mono DRM is moot point....i have my phone at all times.

@johnglass @mono See the above conversation that you replied to for a discussion of why it is not moot.

@nazokiyoubinbou @mono read 3 times. Physical track ownership is a niche demand. For the masses it is not needed....until like i said music services engage in exclusivity.

@johnglass @nazokiyoubinbou I get you and if it works for you, that's great!

but for me the main reason is album availability. for example one of my favourite track from an artist is missing on everything but apple music. I've also seen some albums get removed temporarily or permanently from them. which all reminds me how little control I have over my own collection. I don't have to worry about these with curating my own collection.

@mono @nazokiyoubinbou I see your point and if my listening was a small sample I'd be right there with you but $900 US dollars per year is a lot of money. I used to do that years ago with CDs. I have around 1000. That is like $12,000 usd. Streaming is just too nice to pass up for someone with a voracious appetite.
