Why is it unpopular? Because some people like to have control over our media and like it to be available when your ISP is being shitty.

  If you need local music on the go, using a device makes sense. I suggested Google Play as an alternative to Spotify.

    Then I don't understand. Isn't that some Google service which requires network access? Also I didn't say "on the go". My home ISP is shit, especially during the day when I guess they think most people won't notice the dropped connections. IRC and occasionally SSH show me the hangups. If my music kept getting cut out I would be pissed. This is why I hate the modern world. Everyone assumes you have a perfect internet connection.

      It requires network access at some point, but once you've got thousands of songs downloaded to your device, then you don't have to have any connection at all to listen. Google Music Play is not good if you a) can't afford $8/month, b) never have a network connection at all or c) don't have a device with 1GB-2GB of storage space available for your music. I'm guessing not using Google Play music for you is more than just a technical thing.
