When you buy music, you own the digital/physical copy of the music, when you stream, you can listen as long as you are paying subscription fees. Do you buy music or do you stream music. I don't stream music, I like to buy music and I can listen to music any time I want without paying any fees. I have quite a huge collection of music library. I think I have over 500 GB content of music
 
I subscribe to YouTube Music. I don't have to bother about storage of physical or digital music. With my subscription I can listen as many times I want. Also, I don't have to worry about loss or damage to my copies.
And what happens to your music listening when you do not have access to internet, can you listen offline on Youtube Music. I am asking this because I have never used Youtube Music.

There is a provision for downloaded music to be watched offline as long as you have Internet connection every 30 days. However, I have never tried this because I have regular Internet subscription.

Youtube has this provision, did not know that was also possible on youtube music.
 
I prefer to purchase music because I love to have my own list of songs especially the ones that I love to listen to. I can listen to them anytime without worrying about the internet.
Buying music gives you ownership and control because you can listen to your favorite songs anytime, without relying on internet connectivity or worrying about them being removed from streaming platforms for no reason. But I just like the streaming platforms.
 
I no longer buy music. Instead, I use the free version of Spotify. Currently, I am using Apple Music because it was offered for free. I will have access to it for three months at no cost. After that, I don't plan to renew my subscription.
 
If it is one of my favorite singers, l buy a physical copy . But it is not , l prefer to listen in youtube or online

That's a great approach. It is suggested that we buy the original discs of our most preferred artists . It’s a way of supporting them. Although, streaming through YouTube or any online platform saves cost and you can easily access new music too but it's great to support our favourite artists.
 
Having to stream music anytime you want to listen to it can be quite a challenge for people living in my location. Internet is still a luxury and using your bandwidth to stream music every time is a waste. We better buy it, download it once and access it offline when we want.
 
I used to go nuts and buy CDs of every band I admired and wanted to collect them to own every studio album they had released. This was when I started getting into different bands that I wasn't into before. Nowadays, Spotify and YouTube are my primary sources for streaming music. It's free and it doesn't clutter up your house any.
