This is where I start to feel like a dinosaur. Building a digitally-stored music library is now so much easier than it was with CDs or vinyl. I've got about 3000 albums. Of course, that also means I've put in a LOT of time collecting, downloading, ripping, tagging, organizing, etc... Hey, don't get me wrong - it's a great hobby and keeps me out of the bars (to some extent ;-), but at one point does one have enough confidence in streaming services such as Tidal, Spotify, Qobuz, etc... to feel that there is no longer any real value in maintaining your own library? Is it inevitable? How sad.
