I like music, but not enough to pay $10 a month. Apple has a good set up now.
If it's not broken, then why fix it?
$10 a month? And then to use it on the fly you had better hope there is free Wi-Fi that isn’t throttled or has dozens of others streaming, or restricts streaming site. The alternative, of course is to burn up your data.
Can’t see it.
I did Spotify for awhile at about that price. 9.99, I think. I couldn’t justify the cost and cut it. If it was $6, I’d do it in a heartbeat.
I just listen to the radio. I have a ton of songs on my computer though if I really want to listen to those.
From what I read in the article it is broken as far as Apple is concerned.
"Apple long resisted the subscription music model, enjoying its leadership of the market for digital song downloads after launching the iTunes store as the antidote to file sharing plaguing the recording industry more than a decade ago. However, streaming's popularity -- and downloads' decline -- have made the format too important for Apple to ignore."
In the link in that paragraph it tells Streaming started outselling CD sales and digital download sales dropped by 8.7%.
Paradigm shift. No need to own music anymore and if you do want a copy buying it is not necessary with the ease of the internet AND the multiple ways you can get LEGAL free copies of your favorite hits.
