Why are so many people spending so much money to build “perfect” streaming system?


I don’t understand why so many people are spending so much money building the ultimate streaming system? I guess I am just out of touch… Would love to hear some reasons streaming is so dominant today.

@mikelavigne . Do you like classical music? How many recordings of Wagner’s Ring Cycle do you have? I have 5. Can you get 5 different recordings on ANY streaming platform?

@tk21 
I call bullshit on that - see my comment above.

When I search for "Wagner Ring Cycle" in Roon, I count 29 album hits from the Qobuz service alone
Yes, and that is the problem. You do get exerpts and maybe one full Ring, but not 5 or more full Ring versions with different soloists, conductors etc.
