songs. I had to think about where to store the songs, where to back them up, how to categorize them, how to make them available to all of my devices, etc.
Now for a few bucks a month, I can listen to most any song at any time on any device with no hassle. I download a group of songs onto my phone to play at the gym or at other events where I don't need to worry about a connection. And that payment includes no advertising at all - which I hate.
