An album takes like under 2 minutes to download from a torrent. So using a combination of streaming + downloading the shyt you want "forever" or can't find on streaming shouldn't be too hard to organize. But to go one way or the other exclusively is retarded, nikkas need to do better

How is the quality terrible? Tidal and Apple Music have enhanced quality.

Y'all nikkas listening that close? Shyt sounds fine. :what:

You literally have the music industry at your fingertips in seconds. Albums, music videos, curated and custom playlists, radio all in one. Dudes are in here talking about ripping songs off YouTube and shyt so yes :flabbynsick: and stubborn bone heads are losing IMO.

I flew JetBlue and had WiFi :manny:

They have offline mode too :francis:

Streaming service+SoundCloud+DatPiff and you should be straight. The only thing is rare/unreleased tracks and you can download those onto your cloud.

That's rare though :manny:
lol jetblue? that's a domestic flight, like I said try doing that when you're traveling the world and the planes don't have wifi
why use offline mode if I have a 5TB hard drive?
streaming doesn't have a lot of the music I like
I don't like the concept of only being able to listen to music if I have an internet connection
also I travel a lot, how would I stream if im in spain or Poland or brasil where I don't have signal on my phone? countries where data roaming is extortion/

i still carry one of these.
my lady pays for spotify and the only time i ever use it is if we are in a car and i haven't had a chance to download something yet that just came out.
there are mixtapes, loosies, freestyles, demos, and unreleased albums that never get put on up on spotify, tidal, apple, etc
real music heads know the deal
I got a 160gb just like this and it died last year I damn near cried

they're discontinued so I can't even cop again

workouts ain't been the same since :mjcry:

I dont pay for streaming (outside of paying for directv i guess) I download everything and stream it thru plex media app on my phone from my computer for that one time charge of I think 5.99 and the att unlimited plan. All my downloaded Music and Movies are available remotely :win:. Having access to your whole library in the car is the main thing for me. I understand the convenience of streaming though but I guess I'm a digital hoarder so its more cost effective for me to do it with my own free library since I have been building it for years.

No as far as I know its all streaming from a PC in my basement. If my computer isnt on it doenst work. I am the only one that has access to it unless I pay to add another device but it was free download for PC and for your phone in general you just have to pay to turn on that remote feature on the phone. I really downloaded it because I wanted an easy free streaming for the kids in the house since everyone has laptops they can connect to there TV's using my library thats more user friendly than folder networking so I was playing around with Plex and XMBC and noticed the remote feature on plex. It sets your movies up kind of like netflix ect if you have the meta data right.
