How do I know his choices are as good as mine? Is there a new hierarchy in hi-fi now? Is streaming as a method reproduces the cleanest sound, as opposed to playing a CD, SACD, LP, tape through your own equipment?
@drjjpdc There's really no good way to actually know.
My concern about streaming is the server farm that stores the music can never be turned off and you could lose your music library if your account gets messed with. A server farm can use as much energy as a small city.
