I'd rather download a 24bit fileset. Streaming just doesn't sound good, plus if the Internet connection goes out, that's one thing. The other is, I prefer certain masterings, like the original Led Zeppelin vinyl or CDs of Houses of the Holy (I have the Japan 32XD CD, which sounds SO much better than the recent remaster), or, lately people have been bitching online that The Black Crowes took the "Lost Crowes" compilation off streaming platforms altogether. People went to listen and *poof* the shit was gone. Me, having the 3LP set on colored vinyl, I don't have that issue.

YMMV
Save the history lesson old man.
