Digiital source material: what do people do/makes the most sense...


QUESTION 1: I have a few hundred CDs (plan on ripping to server), and am wondering how to get rest of music I want:

  • A. add one streaming service (which do you recommend?) or
  • B. add one streaming service + buy occasional CDs
  • C. add two streaming services
QUESTION 2: is it is possible to set up hardware to use two services (if needed?):

My musical taste:

  • Classical mainly orchestral but I want to be able to choose a better conductor
  • Common popular music artistsĀ  but I'll want to be able to access most of CDs/albums from e.g. cat stevens, Heart, Rod Stewart, Traffic, Bill Joel, etc
  • Some jazz: mainstream (Brubeck, Miles, Coletrane...)

Thanks for your time.

I use Spotify which suits my kids more than me. I still buy vinyl and CDs.Buying CDs now for me comes down to price(and content). As mentioned above CDs are getting cheaper, I look at it the same as when vinyl started to disappear, It was a good time to buy, people were ditching their collections and replacing them with CDs.I see now as a similar opportunity.
