I’m in a dilemma, I think ownership of media is important, but the convenience of Spotify and the algorithm of new music that it suggests has helped me find amazing artists that I wouldn’t have heard of otherwise.

Fellow sailors, what are your thoughts, and how do you personally listen to music?

    Very detailed! I agree with everything, but I especially dislike the data usage aspect of it, it just eats up data like crazy, especially on a 5G network, oh and the battery drain on my phone too.

      yeah it’s dumb, i’d rather just search for a song but i can’t do that without loading about 7 ads, 3 of which are reasonably high def animated images

      i don’t usually search for new songs when i’m out and about, but if i did this would probably put me off completely
