  The computer speakers aren’t terrible, and my earbuds acquit themselves decently when using my phone. Would I like some nice 8" speakers and a subwoofer? Sure. Not realistic in a van.

    I was trying to be subtle, but that doesn’t seeme to be working.

    The point is, lots of people enjoy music lots of different ways, for lots of different reasons. Just because you don’t use subscriptions doesn’t mean they aren’t valid and useful to anyone who isn’t yo u.

    In short: Don’t gate keep

      You’re tying your access to music to a subscription. That feels wrong to me.

        Why do your feelings about how others pay for things matter to anyone?
        Why does it even matter to you?

      I’m sorry to jump in out of nowhere, but this argument can be used against your top comment in this thread. Some people listen to single tracks, others to whole albums. Am I missing something? I thought you two were just comparing points of view, not trying to decide who was right.
