My thoughts exactly. I can buy a cd, rip to flac / mp3, listen to the mp3's everywhere mobile, and flac in my home theater or on my nice headphones. All of the cd's I buy still costs me less than some subscription service.
- ChrisLTD 15y agoYes, but you could listen to more music for the same price. Even if there are only 2 new albums I want to listen to a month, it's break-even to get an rdio/mog/spotify subscription vs. buying the albums.
- juliano_q 15y agoAnother difference is that by buying music the albuns are yours forever, and with a service like this when you stop paying you got nothing left.
- ticks 15y agoOne service I liked a lot was eMusic. I'm not sure what they are like now, but I got a lot of high quality MP3s for relatively little cost, due to the subscription pricing. It's not like Spotify in terms of listening as much as you want, but once you get tired of the service, you at least have a collection of music rather than nothing.
