You owned all the music you bought on all those CD's where as spotify or other streaming services, you do NOT own any of the songs or rights to them, you just get to "listen" to it over and over when your connected to "the internet", they can remove songs any time they want from catelogues such as spotify, so your favourite song can disappear on you, bet you did not know that. owning vs listening to a song there is a big difference, learn about it, actually wait, nah forget it, the big media companies do not want you to own anything, they actually own you more than you owned them back in the day. your giving MORE money to artists now than you did back in the good old days of CD so your philosophy is flawed and incorrect. but i get your point, just you do not get mine and that is ok to admit that.Music: Probably bought 5 CDs during an average month. At $12 per CD (and it was a lot more than that when labels felt free to rip off the consumer) that's $60/month. Now it's $9.99/month. Looking at my listening stats for last month - 1,244 plays of 1,068 different tracks by 537 different artists
