Why are people using a streaming service instead of buying thousands of dollars worth of CDs (or for that matter, iTunes)? Is this a question?



This has never been the dichotomy; but now that you mention it -- actually, yeah. I'd rather spend thousands of dollars on CDs (in that environment where shopping for them was like it used to be) than iTunes (etc., which I've tried but never found worth continually paying for)


There are still music stores, nothing is stopping you from buying music like we did before Napster let the cat out of the bag. People are allowed to have different utility functions and preferences, sorry yours seems to be going out of fashion.


I mean, come on, that's just false. There are not "still music stores" in any meaningful way.
