  • The point is Spotify may remove your favourite album and then you can access it. It's a stupid point though because if their hard drive breaks or they otherwise lose access to the file they have to return to whoever they bought the music from and hope they can still download it.

    It's like how people point out that when you buy games from steam you don't actually own the game. Well, yeah no shit, if steam shuts down I can't download the game anymore, steam is about convenience not ownership.

    There is nothing wrong with talking about the benefits of possessing digital files that cannot be taken away from you, it's just completely irrelevant to a conversation about streaming services. They are two separate products with their own advantages and disadvantages.

  • On a thread discussing the various streaming options all of this information is entirely irrelevant. Managing a digital library is not appealing to 99% of people.

    You may as well tell people to cook their own food in a thread discussing the various food delivery options.

  • Good for you. I buy/torrent music sometimes too. Streaming is popular because it's convenient and the convenience is more valuable to many people than the benefits of "owning DRM free music".

    Your comment is entirely pointless and pretty fucking pretentious.

  • I'll bite.

    Drones are loud as fuck and if drone delivery became common there would be a massive backlash from the public. Most people live in cities and do not have a yard to put a target on lol. Drone delivery in cities is almost certainly less cost efficient than truck delivery. Land drones are much more likely in cities, or just dudes with cargo bikes like in many European cities.

    So yeah drone delivery might "become a thing" but I doubt it will be mainstream.

  • tbh the futurama fanbase has started to become annoying. Same memes/sad episodes referenced over and over, constantly memeing to bring back the show etc.

    The show was good, it ended, find a new hobby.

  • Futurama has always had pop culture references, the original seasons were not about pop culture. Most references were decades old making them essentially history references, not pop culture references.

    It wasn't till the comedy central seasons that we had self-referential shit like Fry re-enacting the shut up and take my money meme.

    The above statement was incorrect. See below.
