Do people really pay for this?
I pay for YouTube Music and premium gets thrown in for free. Why? It’s mostly momentum.
I used Groove back when that was a thing, and when it folded I could migrate my playlists to YouTube so it was easy and than $10 a month. Now it’s $30 but it’s still like buying a cd a month. I am slowly de-googling and some month will stop using the service. It just hasn’t been a top priority.
If you did this, you’d have like 20 CD’s by the end of the year (way more id you can find used ones) that you completely own and no one can pull the license for later.
Ripping them is easy and allows you to play them anywhere, even without internet.
I don’t disagree with you. But I have a lot of CDs already :) The rationale for me is that it’s all available. I watched a Billy Joel documentary recently (I know 🙄) but it made do a listen through his discography. I’m glad I didn’t buy those. It turns out I already knew the songs I liked and discovered 0 enjoyable deep cuts. But even at $15 a disc that would have been a $200 play through. And yes I’m aware of the high seas and the library.
