  • No ones disagreeing with you about the streaming issue. I just find it odd that you think the solution is analogue.

    More and more musicians might be going back to physical media, but it’s still a heavier burden to invest in that than digital music.
    I still buy my music in digital form in high quality.
    I neither have the space or inclination to store 10 tonnes of vinyl or CD’s

    @Samuelson this is fantastic. Thank you. To access it all from anywhere at anytime is wild!

    Well, I've got a mild issue with @Oliver Schick parodying hisself by insisting on referring to it as 'streaming'.

    So, general consensus seems to be that there's no actual practical alternative to Spotify other than carving your own wax cylinders, which sucks.

  • Well I dunno how much music he actually listens to on a daily basis so it’s my fault.

    Whomever is on this thread is somewhat uneasy about the current structure of music consumption, but I see little point in blaming musicians or making people trawl 3 for 1 CD’s at a shop.

    @Oliver Schick I’m sorry but you currently sound like ‘old man shaking fist at sky’. The analogue vs digital debate is flogging a dead horse. 320 or FLAC is just fine. Most people couldn’t tell you the difference. People want to listen to and enjoy music, not debate the nuances of ‘warm sound’ on vinyl. Move on.

    How’s that HMV vinyl section since I used to manage it 20 years ago?

    Well, at a guess, that 'kl' would probably prefer 'streaking'. Or was that snottyotter?

    Not at all, you can also obviously generate your own pianola rolls. It's great fun and you'll learn to play in the process. Recommended.
