These streaming services gotta figure some shyt out. This is ridiculous. $9.99 x ∞ services?!

Streaming prices will rival cable television prices eventually and will probably include commercials too. This is just the start

Also I don't see a purpose to streaming unless they're offering ultra-high fidelity . . that would be ultimate purpose of streaming. Hosting files that would be inconvenient to have on your own hard drive

What the hell are you hosting servers for to stream MP3

They might as well be collectively working to rape the consumer.

$120/year to stream? And I can't even download most times? And the downloads aren't even what I get to keep? Just some DRM shyt?

And ya'll ain't even got everything?

I have two 1 TB hard drive back-ups of my music library. My library is too vast, too beautifully organized to just be on one hard drive. Have to have multiple back-ups

make sure you have redundant backups breh

Then you know shyt is a pain in the ass. There's always some dope shyt you left at home. Now you gotta load up YouTube anyway on your phone and listen in low quality.

I see he point of downloading + streaming. More options. But just downloading is some Stone Age shyt to me. It's like playing music through various speakers in ya house with the laptop by the AUX or Bluetooth. You gotta have ya shyt hooked up on the WI FI. when my money better we going to do it legit in the whip too.

I'm totally always into downloading. Cause theres always some rare shyt i'll never see again and frankly, its never available elsewhere.

Unless I go to Beatport and get my pockets ran through

+ mad time fukking about

10 is nothing to me.

Bruh...I ain't trusting shyt streaming...cause if someone like Taylor Swift can pull an album thats nothing for a lesser artist to do.

And on top of that, most of these services go bust after a few years anyways. I remember tons of people losing accounts and preferences on old services.

fukk the cloud breh.

Knowing damn well Google out here killing random features and apps for the fukk of it. You can't trust those people.

I use Pandora for free. Yeah I put up with a 30 sec commercial every 4/5 songs but it's free and does just what I need it to.

I can search ANYONE and they're on there. No I can't pick the song but I don't care (YouTube for that). My Big L playlist was killing it for me at the gym. Plus I've come across classic songs that I had somehow overlooked over the years.

Nah I'm good.

Netflix is worth it though for sure.

yeah, you dudes just don't care

The problem here is all the free-tier users. Spotify and them are still paying out royalties when these cheap fux stream something. They're gonna either have to figure out a way to get everyone to pay (unlikely since people are cheap and used to free stuff, see the comments in this thread) or create a few premieum tiers ($20, $30, etc a month) for niche users who will subsidize the freeloaders

Honestly, the low quality lane like Tidal does makes MORE sense...but 10 a month? What? Breh, the fukk? And ya'll ain't even got everything? The fukk type of game is this?

Even Netflix is 7.99

it's funny every time this thread gets made nikkas gotta exaggerate and act like it takes hours to download shyt. here's the reasons i prefer to download.
-free
-i don't have unlimited data
-music on the phone kills my battery
-got my own playlists with only the songs i wanna hear.
- on iTunes i can choose when i want the song to start and end. none of the bullshyt start the track over 5 times for the shyt that never got a no dj release.
- got a bunch of rare shyt that was never officially released that i know ain't on streaming.
-I'd rather have all my music in one place instead of switching app to app.


i got my shyt on play music so when i want to beam it and shyt i can, but I'm rocking with the ipod until apple stops replacing them.

You can't be a rap music fan and rely on streaming.

With all the mixtapes, remixes, and unofficial drops? Man, you might as well listen to the radio
