And google might randomly cancel that service one day like they seem to do.
I’m the same with subscription services - I keep them to an ABSOLUTE minimum, Netflix and Spotify is about it. Almost everything these days seems to be a subscription and one can only pay a tenner a month for so many things...
The convenience of streaming is real and I’ve discovered a shitload of music as a result instead of listening to the same 5 cds over and over.
Also, change is hard.

I'm the same, it feels like paying for nothing, you never get to own it. Like renting v. buying. Plus I like physical music for the artwork etc.
My current set up is every time I buy a CD I put it in my Mac, then it gets added to iTunes and Google Play Music Manager then automatically uploads the MP3s to Play Music, which is a bit like my own personal cloud streaming service.
Only problem is that Google Play Music Manager isn't supported on the new version of MacOS and iTunes doesn't exist but I'm not very minded to upgrade at the moment anyway.
