Kay Posted August 24, 2019 Report Share Posted August 24, 2019 7 hours ago, Russel Coight said: I really do wonder why they decided to release this studio version. It’s really not that different to the live version and that was met with a hugely negative reaction. So why do it to themselves? Why months later release another version just to get shit on again? Makes no sense to me whatsoever, especially so deep into a tour and in the middle of a new album release schedule. Genuinely wondering what their managers are smoking lately. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheerios4u98 Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 I just prefer having all my music in iTunes rather than streaming it. Until literally four hours ago when my entire iTunes library randomly disappeared. So... that sucks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n i k u Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 not the worst thing in the world.. id honestly be down to hear a re-recorded "greatest hits" with matt. think that would be interesting to hear. if you told me in 2003 when self titled/untitled came out that blink would be collaborating with lil wayne on a remix of WMAA and a full US tour, id tell you to quit smoking crack. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have the xml file for whatever reason. Having to rename the track and album titles is going to be a pain in the butt. At least I still have the music though.

zzzz Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 Just get Apple Music and never have to worry about it ever again... I was hesitant to drop $10/mo for the longest time, but it’s honestly an absolute steal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 Apple music doesn't have everything I want to listen to on it though. And I like owning the song files. That way I can still listen to everything even without an internet connection, and I can do other things with them if I want. I use the free version of Spotify when I want to listen to something that I don't want to buy and probably won't want to own. But most of what I listen to is my own collection of music that I've been building up for half my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzzz Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 If it’s super obscure I get that I guess, though I’ve yet to run into anything I couldn’t find. But you can instantly download any album and not have to “stream it”. So you don’t need Internet, other than when originally downloading (if you don’t want to burn your cell phone data). It’s seriously the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s seriously the best. I do have a fair amount of obscure stuff that isn't on most streaming services. Lots of b-sides and bonus tracks, demos, live bootlegs, music from my friends' bands, music that I've made, etc... I just prefer to have it all in one big library!

Yeah I felt that way for the longest time, but it’s too tedious. First off I hate paying for digital stuff, so I’d buy physical CDs, then rip to iTunes, then plug in phone to sync, etc. Though I still support bands I really love with physical purchases, this adds up quickly. And even if you torrent it for “free”, still too tedious and not worth the risk. Meanwhile, for $9.99/month I can download any band’s entire discography before I can even get a fart out, have it synced to my Apple Watch in a minute, and listening to it through wireless headphones offline running around the block... and if I hate the album= delete and not feel like I wasted money. Every Friday I instantly download any new album that interests me, for less than 1 would cost if buying...so it really is an absolute steal. Obviously it’s not gonna have rare demos, b-side stuff that isn’t in the iTunes Store, but it has pretty much everything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I get the appeal, and one day I'll probably make the jump to streaming, but I still listen to enough stuff that isn't available to stream on a regular enough basis that it doesn't feel worth it to me yet.
