What's the source of the music you listen to?

[Arcadio]

I own a large collection of CD's. I ripped them to my PC back in the late 90's and I still buy them and rip them, although less frequently now. I listen to the rips of those CD's for the most part. If I don't own the CD, I get the music from Spotify (the paid version).

Where does your music come from?

 

[John Connor]

Either Pandora, YouTube or my MP3 rips.

 

[IronWing]

Mostly drum machines and autotune

 

[DaveSimmons]

I have a music jukebox PC with 1,100+ CDs in FLAC format and a few dozen more in MP3. The MP3s are mostly from when I don't want to pay $18 for a "deluxe" CD or $30 for an import.

I also listen to Pandora sometimes and YouTube now and then, mostly to find new artists to buy on CD or MP3.

 

[Ns1]

Apple Music + previously ripped CDs

 

[Carson Dyle]

Mostly CD rips, some hi-def downloads. About 4000 albums. All FLAC.

I also maintain a parallel library based on the main library transcoded into MP3 for loading onto my portable players.

[Crono]

I use Spotify a lot. Before that Zune/Xbox Music and Pandora free.

I used to have some CDs, too, but never a big collection. I'm not a collector of stuff.

 

[FeuerFrei]

Mp3s on the computer, either ripped from CDs I buy, or downloads from Amazon and CDbaby.

At work I stream somaFM internet radio ... e.g. Deep Space One channel

 

[DesiPower]

local files, but on phone, not pc

 

[Squisher]

None of the above. My store bought CD and vinyl collection. [/old school]

[WhiteNoise]

I prefer CD's myself but I also stream.

[nakedfrog]

Overwhelmingly local resources.

 

[olds]

Mostly Pandora.
I can't stream at work so it's ripped MP3s.

 

[BW86]

SiriusXM
or
Google Music (uploaded my whole collection)

 

[lxskllr]

Files on my pc or phone.

 

[Staples]

Google Play music. I don't think I'd pay for internet music but it comes free with youtube red (which I find worth it).

 

[WiseUp216]

Vinyl collection & Spotify subscription.

 

[JimmiG]

95% Spotify, 5% Youtube.

 

[DeathReborn]

Custom Playlist of MP3's ripped from CD's or purchased MP3's as well as FLAC. I do not stream radio/music, I carry 2x 64GB MicroSD cards with MP3/FLAC in my wallet. I also still listen to CD's, Vinyl and Cassettes as well.

 

[Hugh Jass]

Huge MP3 collection from various sources, various internet radio streams and SiriusXM subscription.
