    I am so glad I swapped to downloading my music rather than streaming. Fuck Spotify and every other streaming service. Owning my music is more important to me than any level of “convenience” those services pretend to offer

      Plus you can make it just as convenient by self-hosting your own streaming service from home!

        Oh do you have any recommendations on how to do that? I’ve just been using Syncthing which works fine, but I’m curious if you have better ways of doing it

      I just wish i could buy and use cd’s still, the artists used to see more money and i got to use the music in whatever device i decided.

        I’ve been building up my collection by browsing my local Bullmoose (idk how widespread that store is) and other places that sell CDs. I’ve got a disk reader a friend gave me to rip them.
