What are you streaming tonight?

As we are in the modern age of music I thought I would see how this fares.
We have threads specific for cdp and tt so why not streaming as it is a modern media.
I don't care if you stream Tidal, Deezer, Spotify, Paradise Radio or any number of internet stations.
I would like you to share your tastes and method of streaming.

Well, the nice thing is, I’ve found with many high cost older LP’s, you can often find a cassette version in highly rated condition at a fraction of the cost.
It’s nice to have a tape deck 👍🏼
Totally agree.
Apple by Mother Love Bone was getting near $100 on vinyl or more for NM. Mint cassette still sealed was $14.
Not sure as all agree it is nice to have a tape deck though...lol.

One of the real benefits of streamer is you don’t have to be too concerned about the economics of the format.   Have you ever bought a collectible LP just to find out it was damaged or you didn’t like it?   That’s why I am really liking Qobuz right now.  Doesn’t cost more to try things out.  
BTW, power back on yesterday.  Think I saw my house on ABC news last night as part of tornado coverage.  Luckily most of the damage was concentrated on the side of the house opposite from my system.  Can’t listen to music yet because the water mitigation equipment in the basement is so loud.  Glad I can download Qobuz onto my iPhone and listen on headphones.

Good to hear you are healthy and well. Lots of friends are without electricity on east coast.

Agree on the streaming. Low cost exploration. I just listened to Device recommended by uber. I would not have bought the album if I ran across it, but enjoyed it.

Exactly one of the beauties of streaming imho.
I think I have like 1400 albums saved under my Qobuz favourites and I daresay I would not consider buying 10% of them.
For $15 a month for hires quality Qobuz it is a no brainer.

Glad to hear things are looking up a bit 16f4, hopefully insurance covers most of that damage but still a royal pain to work through it.

We had hurricane damage couple years back which meant a new roof but oh boy dealing with the insurance companies was frustrating to say the least! Nickel and dime every aspect!
