How do you listen to your music? Spotify, torrents, pandora, terrestrial radio, cd's?

[tmacattack33]

I'm just wondering how people are listening to their music these days?

What do you all use? Streaming services (Spotify is the biggest one)? Torrents? Does anyone still buy physical cd's?

Does anyone just get by by using terrestrial radio (regular am/fm radio) and youtubing the songs that you really want to hear on the spot?

Spotify
Google Music for stuff I own

Spotify is totally worth it but I'm considering switching to Amazon Prime so that I can eliminate the need for both a Netflix and Spotify subscription.

On my mobile I use Duomi. Lets me stream virtually everything I want, download in high bitrate mp3 and has a couple of awesome features. All for free.

[robert de niro]

spotify for everything (streaming and my downloaded music) and if for some reason i can't find what i want there i go to grooveshark

iTunes and vinyl for the stuff I own. Spotify at the office.

As a musician myself, I can't bring myself to download music illegally. Excluding the big stars, musicians are generally really poor. I mainly use spotify but I also buy CDs and some vinyl. Primarily for the experience.

I like to own my music, not rent it, so I download torrents. Same goes for movies. It's shocking how many people rely on monthly pay services that are dependent upon the internet.

torrents, spotify, musicbee. sometimes college/satellite radio. 87.9% of the time I'd rather listen to a full album instead of shuffling random songs or making custom playlists.

i'd buy albums and support the artists and everything, but heroin ain't cheap. And i'd rather spend the money on actually going to a show

I still get VBR V0 mp3s through a private torrent site. I sync them between my laptop and my phone.

[Genaro]

Home I download torrents or go to youtube. On mobile I use spotify.

[Smook A.]

I have an app on my phone where I can download any song for free.

[miller-time]

I'm old school. Mp3s from my computer using Winamp. I am set in my ways now.

mostly youtube these days :facepalm

The music on my laptop and ipod is torrented but I have a few CDs because I like to have a physical copy.

[Rake2204]

Ipod and itunes. I do not use torrents, Spotify and whatnot. I like Pandora, but I never use it for some reason. Also, my AM/FM radio and CD player both do not work in my car.

If there's an artist for whom I find to be one of my favorites, I'll still often buy the physical CD. And if there's music out there I wish to try but do not feel I'd ever purchase otherwise, I utilize my state's inter-library loan website and just borrow it. I try to stay away from mass downloads of everything I could ever want and more. Having to pursue and acquire a physical copy of an album (even if it takes minimal effort) tends to help me better appreciate the music itself.

Usually, I just listen to my CDs on iTunes that I uploaded, but I listen to full albums on youtube or sometimes spotify, and also occasionally use Pandora. I collect CDs so I have plenty of owned albums in iTunes. Sometimes I torrent albums if I can't possibly get them for a reasonable price. I have close to 300 CDs currently, but that number will only increase.

I have an app on my phone where I can download any song for free.

Does it work for full albums? I'm one of those people who only wants the full album and not just single songs.

Nope. I like having full albums too but since the app doesn't do that I just download every song from that album. Doesn't really take long to download all. 10 songs takes less than 10 minutes.

Yeah a minute per song is not too bad, can you transfer them onto your computer afterwards as well? Mind if I ask what program it is?
