I stumbled upon this article a few days ago and found it to be an interesting read. It brings up some very interesting points about streaming, vinyl, and compact discs.
Article: You Should Listen To CDs
After reading it, I found that I really don't fit in any of the categories listed in the article. While I had a large collection of CDs at one point, I burned my entire collection to a hard drive (mostly for the same reason the author lost his appreciation for vinyl... it's difficult to move!) and now go to a handful of SITES to find (and download) music. What I've found most interesting about my experience is that I'm now more willing to try something outside of my comfort zone... if I don't like it, I'm merely out the time it took to download and listen. In a way, what I do is the hybrid between streaming and physical CDs, and I can admit that I now have many items in my collection that I enjoy, but never would have spent the money to give it a try otherwise.
