      My God this is a tiresome side of Lemmy, I like the idea of ownership and all that but streaming offers more than access it is convenient and cheap access to a wider range than possible to download.

          Spotify’s music recommendations have introduced me to some of my favorite bands today. compiling your own mp3 library doesn’t do that

              yeah there are a lot of sources but the convenience of a paid service isn’t something to be ignored.

          Cool, I have really niche shit you’ve never heard of and as soon as you do hear about it you can find it and listen immediately.

          Why am I lazy because I don’t take the long way around to the fun part to things?

          And I could probably pull any of those thousands of songs out of thin air anywhere in the world on nearly any device and play it on Spotify or YouTube. You sound like a jealous broke bitch

      no.

      I like having fresh and new music to listen to based on my music taste.

        Eh, do both

        Definitely agree with you, but it’s good to make playlists yourself too. I’ve got playlists I made over a decade ago that I go back to every now and again

        Which service are you using that provides a good quality playlist based on your music tastes?

        I found Spotify to be pretty rubbish at it since 90+% of it seemed to recommend the same songs day in, day out.
