this article is less about issues with streaming and more about the author’s impulse control issues.
You know you can just put mp3 files on your phone and play them locally, right?
I store music on my NAS and stream songs using an app that can connect to it. Connect everything to tailscale so I can use it on the go. Works flawlessly.
Which is absolutely unnecessary since a phone can carry an absolute ton of music locally.
I have over a 100 GB of music probably even close to 200 GB. I don’t want to put all that on my phone for obvious reasons. Not unnecessary.
Edit: I low balled it by a lot
How many years of music is that?
Yes
Unless it’s all lossless
I left Apple Music and went back to phonograph cylinders.
I’m gonna party like it’s 1877.
That’s funny, I have an iPhone 16 Pro Max and Apple Music and I play music on that, and I also have Plexamp to play music stored on my Mac, but I also have an old Android phone (Galaxy S10) with a 64GB memory card in it, and my favourite albums are archived to it, and I have Poweramp (paid, bought it over 10 years ago) on it and it’s like my backup iPod kinda thing. It has WiFi but no cellular service. (Oh, I also have Apple Music and Plexamp on the Android phone, too, but it’s also an offline backup.)
