How do you jam? Music POLE

[haleyann]

I'm being forced to change my music service and I haven't had to choose one for over a decade.... It's tough to choose. I was using Groove (aka Xbox Music aka Zune) but Microsoft is discontinuing it and merging with Spotify.

So what do you use and why do you like it? What don't you like?

[Melon]

Spotify
YouTube
or downloaded MP3's

[coogles]

Spotify Premium or regular Pandora. Spotify on the computer at work, but Pandora on my phone. The Spotify app sucks hard.

voted google music, have several answers:

i google music for podcasts. the integration with android is great, but it looses my place often and it only allows you to autodownload 3 episodes. five or a custom setting per podcast would be great. listening to 2-3 hour shows...its rage inducing when a new d/l hits and it both looses my spot and makes me re-d/l.

as a music player for mp3 media....meh. it works. I like the integration with android.

Overdrive for audio books

amazon music for streaming radio when the wife isn't using the account, pandora when she is.

I still get mp3/4 media that I'd like to have anytime 'other ways'

spotify app on iphone or android?

I use regular pandora when I feel like streaming something.

[Acid666]

I'm on Pandora 20 hours a day. 8-10 hours a day at work on my phone, and at home at my computer.
Our band is actually on Spotify I think, but I've never really used it. I go through waves of specific subgenres of metal on Pandora and switch it up every other week.
I'm trying to find my total stream time but can't find it online or on the app. I remember it was something like 4,000+ hours or some shit like that.

I still buy physical media for music Most of it comes with digital download cards, and then I download the songs and load them onto my phone and/or computer. If I want to listen to something I don't own, I just stream it on youtube.

wow. you are old school.

I do like having downloaded music though. I don't like relying on having internet to listen to music. Especially when I want to listen to music on a plane or on road trips through the boonies.

Yeah I like having the downloaded music for when I don't have cell service. I also like throwing a record on at the house and listening to that, even though I know it means I'll have to flip the record over after 15-20 minutes or so.

I thought this too for a while. But with our cd release, I've had more people ask for a physical copy than we've had digital downloads. I thought I'd set up our stuff online and nearly everyone would go to Itunes and Google Play to download it, but the numbers just weren't where I thought they'd be. Nearly everyone wanted to get a physical copy at one of our shows. I'm the complete opposite. I get a cd, I burn it and put it on my phone and computer and never look at the disc again.

I buy my music, either digitally from Amazon or the iTunes store for my iPod, or actual CD's (yes, I still like to buy the occasional CD. Fuck you, don't judge me.) I have a few thousand songs on an SD card that I play in my :turboyaris), on a micro SD card so I can play them on my phone, on my old gen 4 iPod Nano that I don't use much any more, on my laptop, and on my desktop computers at work and home. I don't really stream because with all my songs so readily available I don't see the point.

For audiobooks I currently use Hoopla, which seems to have become way less buggy lately, so that's good.

This is what I do. Rip mp3's on to PC, move copies to 200 GB microSD card on phone, use PowerAmp android app for playback.

I need to cull some shit because the SD card is full and I have a bunch of things I want to put on there.

Yeah I've got something like 4,000 songs on my phone. It's rare that I ever stream music. Mostly just when a new album comes out and I want to listen before buying.

[Acid666]

Streaming is $$$$$$$$$$$$ wow so many monies.

[troyguitar]

is the only thing I really use it for also. Youtube to preview shit to decide whether to buy it.

especially when I don't want to use data or travel internationally where you can't have as much internet accessability, music downloaded in your phone is the way to go.
