This was sent to me by a member of an audio club that I belong to. I still have tons of CD rips to listen to as well as the occasional paid-for hi-res downloads. I also have Spotify, Pandora, iTunes Radio Streaming, and Amazon Prime Music streaming. I don't yet subscribe to a hi-res streaming service but I'm sure I will before too long. Latest Nielsen report show, the obvious decline of the physical mediums and digital downloads in favour of digital streaming services. It seems, that 2015 will be a year of the streaming. Not only low, but also high quality music streaming services like Tidal etc. Only one medium, that is not mentioned here stays in the game. Vinyl! For obvious reasons? Nielson Report |
