The best part is i skim and get into music i would normally have no interest in just because you can get it immediately.
Yeah, this. The other day I was breaking in MLB The Show 15 and heard this song by Conway (she's a pop-punk-type artist, the type of music I would usually never listen to) ... within 15 seconds, I load up Conway's EP on the queue and I'm set :ehh:

1. not everyone has 64gb smart phone

2. causals don't give a fukk about owning music or dl illegally

3. you have 64gb ipod, spotify has 1 terabyte of music in the cloud. you can access it anywhere with pretty much any device without compromising storage.

4. its free, you only have to sit through a 30 sec commercial.

so it pretty much play out like this..
scenario 1: drake drops new album.. you go scour the internet trying to find a zippyshare link for 10 mins..
scenario 2 : drake drops a new album, open up spotify and listen

im just saying storage on a smart phone regarding music wouldn't be a issue. you can use that space you saved for photos, videos and other apps.:manny:

and the 30 sec commercial only pops up once in a while, lets say for every 10 songs, one shows up.. i can live with that.. :manny:

but do you bruh, no right way to consume music in 2015.. dl.. stream.. buy.. what ever bruh

the only real way to support an artists is to go the shows or buy merchandise from their store.

My girl got a spotify account for free as compliment to her mobile service. Having a spotify account makes me understand why people would pay for it to be honest. Shyts just beautifully convenientfor music lovers. I listened to a few rare classics I couldn't find an illegal download link for too since I had access to this

I use Google Play Music....

It's just more convenient for me, I just don't have time to sit and download albums anymore or transfer them my phone. Soon as new music comes out I have access to it. Also I have kids so I can new music from different genres when they are with me as well...

I can go back and listen to classics without having to download them, listen to obscure songs and save playlists to my tablet as well. It's only 8.99 monthly which is less than if I bought one album a month

I asked this same question last month and nikkas caught feelings:mjlol: http://www.thecoli.com/threads/the-idiocy-of-purchasing-music.302884/

A lot of people feel it's only right to support the music industry through purchasing their art and not downloading their shyt for free, me, I don't give a fukk. I was copping CD's before the download era, taking chances on CD's for $18.99 plus tax, catching mad duds along the way:damn: Music fans were really rolling the dice back in the day, copping CD's all excited and getting hit with the

cause you really didn't have a way of previewing shyt, only word of mouth.

But now, it's a new day:blessed:
What the fukk I look like paying for shyt I can get for free:dahell: I pay for music by paying my internet bill. Anything else is frivolous. nikkas out here buying single songs and shyt:heh:

I'm downloading whole discographies in flac with artwork tags and the whole nine. Which reminds me, I need to cop another 64 gig iPod. I downloaded these discographies just last week.
