I personally find it appalling that not one person has discussed the QUALITY of the files one would listen to on Spotify - 3 different levels of MP3's.
Um, not cool.. MP3's are not "quality", this isn't my opinion, it's a technical fact. It's maddening to me that people would readily accept this form of audio and not demand better.
Now it seems most music users are more inclined to go for convenience rather than something that might provide true musical experiences. Sucks to be you.
& If you call yourself a musician or audio professional and you can't tell the difference in perceivable quality between the best 320kb MP3 and vinyl, YOU REALLY DO NOT BELONG MAKING MUSIC...PERIOD! Go work in a kitchen and call yourself Chef but don't jackoff in audio and call yourself Maestro.
We have lost our way and no one will notice because they are distracted by the shiny keys of the latest tech fad.
Have fun with your disposable DJ-pop hits ala Capital Cities or Miley. Don't cry 10 years later when you revisit those "artists" and can't find anything redeeming about their "products"...I'll be listening to Roy Orbison, Pet Sounds, Pink Floyd and Bowie on my platter.
