I’m someone who has a large FLAC collection and an obsession with my private music tracker. I do it because of an obsession of collecting music, but modern streaming is “good enough” for 99% of cases. And unlike video streaming platforms, most audio platforms have “most” content that people want to listen to.

> And unlike video streaming platforms, most audio platforms have “most” content that people want to listen to. I'm worried about the potential for this to change. Netflix used to have a much larger catalogue, especially for movies. Nowadays the things I'm interested in may be spread across a dozen different services. Currently it seems that Spotify, and Youtube music (probably Apple music too, though I've not tried it) have almost everything I can think of. But I can certainly see a possible future where these services get much more fragmented. For instance, I know Apple is already pushing a classical only streaming service. Could/would they some day remove classical from their other streaming services and instead offer a higher priced bundle deal? I think it's possible.
