    Proving my point

    “Why love somethingr when you have everything?” Is the calling cry of every person who thinks streaming is the fundamental ideal situation

    But that’s not as great as it seems

    Why would I not want access to all the music in the world? That’s what we currently have and there are artist groups and songs I treasure still, not because I don’t have other options but because they just don’t move me the way that song or artist might. Access on the level we have now reveals what actually touches you or what’s just put in front of you

    The only way streaming works is if you have a mindset that prioritizes consumption over appreciation

    You can appreciate music you stream lol. Streaming really is only a tool. I don’t get this elitist mindset lol

    Like $15 a month I think. Paying around a lunch a month to have access to an endless catalogue of music I love is a great deal. News flash, none of us “own” anything in this life if you provide the same level of scrutiny. With the amount of music I have downloaded, it would have costed 10x the amount I have paid from my years of Apple Music subscription

    Pretty good deal. I also own all of my music. Can never be taken away or changed how streaming services can do to people (which threads get made about on here daily)

    How much is streaming monthly? Multiplied by 70 years and add in increases when they realize you don’t own anything

    It’s the cost of one CD a month. It’s only March and I’ve listened to way more than what’s on just three albums. There’s no way you can make the argument streaming is worse for the consumer.

    None of my 3k+ saved songs taken away from me, ever.

    I’ve had Apple Music since its release and have paid it every month and it’s still not even close to what I would’ve paid for all the music I consume

    Why are we preaching consumption

    This is just the 4chan meme

    Yes I agree but I don’t think streaming is what’s keeping people from doing that.

    I had streaming for most of my high school career and I’ve probably discovered more genres, artists, etc than I would have if I didn’t have streaming.

    I will agree that you’re more likely to sit with an album if you use to buy it vs just streaming it

    Which gives artists in general zero incentives to make great projects that need to be sat with

    You do not need access to all the music in the world.

    Also we just dont listen to the albums now, we listen to the play list, every playlist means minimum 10 seperate album

    There are artists that do just that though. You personally just don't like the music.

    Because music and all art is made to be consumed. Consumption of music is how artist pay their bills. Creativity and consumption are two sides of the same coin. Can’t have one without the other

    We can keep it rap.
