    Yeah I gotta have the actual files/CDs. I've never used a streaming service. I've always used MP3 CDs in the car or in a stereo and then finally went to an IPod a long time ago and have had that ever since. I back up my music with online storage (Mozy) & HAD a portable hard drive before it broke.

    I would literally be devastated if I somehow lost my collection of music I've continued to add to since like 2001.

    <--- Albumdabster is the BEST website for hip-hop music by far, as we cover literally every single option of hip-hop, Alternative, Emo, Trap, Vapor, French, German, Russian, Oldschool however we're also only 320 as a lot of Russian based traffic, and they don't like iTunes for some reason.

    PlusPremieres is an incredible source though, no slander there, and adding a method I've learned over the years.

    site:dbr.ee album name here
    site:zippyshare.com album name here
    site:mediafire.com album name here
    site:mega.co.nz album name here

    Typing those things in google will most likely give you an album you're looking for.

    For singles, leaks, and other s---.
    upnextheat.com

    Zippyshare download links for every post, usually has everything very quickly too.

    When you listen to over 100 artists you can't buy every single album.

    We live in an age where current phones come with 120 gb storage, that is more than enough to store a collection of music in lossless.
    I never got the appeal of streaming, but I guess it's quicker and more accessible. You can pick genres/moods as well.
    I spend at least 5-10 minutes just deciding on what I want to listen to, tbh.

    Stream from Spotify to listen first. Buy albums I really enjoy and get the digital download also from Amazon.

    It's better than simply pirating the music and giving the artist nothing.

    I download more TV shows and movies than music these days. For $9 per month I can listen to unlimited music without storing any of it anywhere AND it contibutes to the artists.

    It's also a great way to discover new songs/artists that you didn't know of because the spotify algorithms are pretty spot on.

    My iTunes only 45GB I delete music regularly.

    Knowing a lot of music =/= hoarding a lot of music
