I agree with you both. I also want to own the music. The problem is I struggle to justify that position other than on sound quality grounds. If I could load all my FLAC files into the cloud and stream them in all their pristine quality to whatever player I wanted wherever and whenever I wanted then I suspect that is what I would do. I might even pay £10 a month for the ability to do it.
No costly servers to keep powered up. No need to do back ups (OK, fair enough, no way am I trusting a 'cloud' provider to guarantee not to lose my stuff) or worry about hard drive failures. See where I'm going? What is the difference between that and 'renting'? When I sit and select an album on my SB+ do I care which NAS it is coming from? So equally I wouldn't care if it came from Cloud Storage. Where is the line then that would stop me (and you guys) wanting a Lossless Spotify? IF Spotify or similar were lossless and had 'enough' content depth how do I justify my strange need to 'own' the music? Even though I know I need to own it, I don't really understand why.,,,,, Cheers Andrew ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aspendl828's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20497 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95885
