:wow:

Feel sorry for the rest of yall in this thread burning your data plan. :francis:

Thanking your technocratic masters for allowing you to be monetized for your appreciation of art and culture. :dame:
I have T-Mobile, which allows you to stream Spotify and other music services for free/without using up your data.

But I'm gonna let you cook :dame:

Unlimited data no throttling :ahh:

:yeshrug: Good for you. I'd still rather own because if those services go down you're hosed.

You don't play music in the crib :dame:

:comeon: course I do but I use the same library I got on my phone. Which includes remixes and 'unreleased' heat that you can't find from the labels on the streaming svcs.

Unlimited stream if you can connect to that bammer network. I had a little T mobile burner in college for my extra curricular money making activities and I swear I lost more business on that phone than I made from not getting texts and calls until hrs after they were sent.

But whatever works / fits in your budget my bamma breh. :umad:

I prefer buying and 'having' an album. I use Spotify to check out an album before buying, that's about it. Streaming doesn't do anything for me at all.

Tidal made me a believer...

besides the random new tracks that pop up every few days (which skews more hip hop than anything else)....i like being able to think of some random album i forgot about and reminisce. great for long drives. current rotation: RD, Vol. 1, Life After Death, Doggystyle, Ghetty Green, Stankonia
I dont know if people know this,Tidal has a lot of labels & artists (not just Prince) the other services don't pick up. Napster (formerly Rhapsody) has labels that Tidal doesn't have. I haven't subscribed to Spotify. But I have noticed Apple music has artists that Tidal & Napster doesn't have. It looks like they made individual deals to keep people buying different services. If you are an audiophile, you start to discover that slowly after some searching.

For 30 a month it is worth it for me to have different music services, in comparison to buying premium tv channels, it is more for your money in terms of content. The music is endless now. You can literally go to pauseandplay.com look at the release dates and pull up most of the releases. Basically you own access to almost every domestic label in the world. :ohhh::ohhh::ohhh:

As far as not having a cd or download, I burned out a loooooong time ago of collecting in that sense. I dont have the space & I dont miss liner notes, most cd's were horrible with liner notes. They gave you nothing but a page of credits & they were charging 17.98 a pop. The artists & labels need to understand to follow the streaming model & not hitch your wagon to the decrepit ways of yesteryear. :francis:


Im just going to gamble that the music I listen to is going to be somewhere floating in the digital clouds that I can access at anytime. Im not a rotational person. I listen to artist catalogs and have no interest in dwelling on something for that long. Now that everything is available, I dont have to play music releases over n over again because thats all I have access to. :russ: Some independent labels wont go digital though. Get on the streaming wagon or wither & die. :francis:
