I agree with Marky and Hugh. I hate Spotify and all it stands and what it has done especially to the artist.
However I also use Spotify because of its convenience after I lost my entire iTunes account.
Having said that 90% of what I listen to on Spotify and have on my playlists I also own in physical product and still buy every new release from bands I follow.
The other 10% is usually when you want to hear a one off track for whatever reason (usually because of something I read on here).
Plus I get Spotify free with no adds!!

Hey Marky
I actually bought every Album on multiple formats except F-Punk and Higher Power which was straight to CD . The first album (This is) i even bought Tape , Vinyl , CD , and CD reissue but i am certain you already know that, you tease, and now i enjoy them on Spotify for £15,00 a month. I hope that makes me the winner
The spotify is for ease of use i can do lots of personal compliations that are available to play where ever i am with out having to worry about multiple CDs or vinyl or any other format to listen to where ever i go with out bothering to do limited and time consuming MP3 compliations .I can listen to any album or song when ever ,where ever and what ever i like with every device with spotify installed automatically updated. There is always a direct play on there website if you have internet access as well.
Roll on F-Punk and Kool Aid, Thank you Spotify for making music so excessible.
Yeah, I've lost my Higher Power CD (bought second hand). Nice to have easy access to it.

Late capitalism does not reward the generalist; master your tightly circumscribed niche or perish.

I listen to music in every format available. Spotify is great for checking out stuff that I might not normally buy. How someone listens to music is entirely up to them. I've spent thousands on music over the years. Now people can listen for a few pounds a month good for them.

It's also worth considering the greater carbon footprint of a physical product (particular for something that isn't inherently physical).

That's an interesting point, although I guess we'd have to also figure out the relative carbon output for streaming services. I'm not sure how one would do that - presumably direct impacts from streaming/downloading and then trying to come to some sort of apportioned responsibility for a sliver of internet infrastructure. Intuitively, downloading/streaming seems better on the carbon footprint front, but I'd be curious how big the gap is.
