I’m one of those old fogies who sticks as far as possible to physical media when it comes to my music collection (11,756 approx LPs - 2,000 cds and god knowns how many SACD’s) I have a few high resolution downloads but I’m paranoid about losing them. I lost all mine last year when a 2000volt line fell onto the local 240volt supply and destroyed more gear than I care to remember, digital backups included.
Besides I’m one of those weird eccentrics who gets an irrational (?) amount of enjoyment running my LP’s over a vacuum cleaning machine and then onto my turntable as SOTA direct drive. If I encounter something I enjoy on line I’ll put a lot of effort into acquiring a physical copy of it. Makes up dating my insurance policy a headache - the insurance company demands I list every single LP given I’m sitting on some LP’s worth silly money such as the original Beatles ‘White Album’ in mint condition etc

It's all good Karl. I totally understand and respect your view for you. I was talking about me. I LOVE the convenience and now the quality of streaming my custom playlists. I gave all my vinyl, 8 tracks, cassettes and CDs to my daughter and will never look back. At what cost? Who cares? Pffffft I've EARNED my preference. That's one HOT turntable btw!!!
Life's too short to miss an opportunity to show your love and affection!
