The New Yorker's music critic weighs in on streaming services

I know Spotify et al. are old news in this forum, but when a long hair classical music guy like Alex Ross (actually he has very little hair) realizes that his groaning shelves of CDs are yesterday's news and the hip crowd is keeping its music library in the cloud, then you have to admit that the times they are a changin'. I remember similar articles when the vinyl LP began to give way to the CD.
Most of the issues he raises have been raised here on Music Lane long since. But I thought it worth noting when the mainstream media, even if it's the more erudite end of the mainstream, takes note.
