This got me wondering is everyone streaming now? You didn't come up in the late 90s and 2000s if you never gave your computer AIDS by trying to find a specific song. You had to make sure it wasn't some wack remix or cover. You had to make sure the sound quality was right. Sometimes you'd hear someone in the background shouting the name of where you got the song from. Lol Sometimes you had to struggle finding the song at all. Going through tons of sites trying to find one that actually had the song to download, and wasn't just some virus. Napster, Limewire, etc. Then you had to edit it too. ITunes, Windows Media Player, Real Player etc.

Do you still have your download collection or did you give it up for streaming? I have a 5000+ song catalogue. I can't see letting that go.

I like to physically possess my music and not leave it in the safe hands of Jay and Sony..the day streaming fails or some shyt Id like to still have my stuff. And I travel to far off remote areas where you cant stream for shyt.

Exactly. Streaming subscriptions are basically temporary leases, i.e, music rentals... I prefer to have a tangible copy of music I like.

You can download music to listen to offline from Pandora , Spotify , Tidal, Google Play music and other apps. That's what I do, right now I 23 have Youtube Red, so with it, I have YouTube music as well as Google play music. When I don't want to waste my cell phone data, I just listen to music offline from my Google Music playlist.
