The Google I/O 2013 conference kicked off today with an amazing 3 hour keynote. This conference is focused on developers but they did talk about some things today that I find fascinating and it got me thinking about music. I have not directly purchased music in years. (I DO NOT download any music from any type of torrent site.) I still listen to a lot through various streaming services. Right now I pay for Pandora and Spotify.
Today a new service was introduce by Google called Google Play Music All Access. I did sign up for this one as well because there is a free trial.
This prompted me into thinking about how people consume music today. Back in the day I had stacks and stacks of cassette tapes, CDs and even Mini Disks. I always thought it was a hassle. Now I am not sure I really own much music because it is much easier for me to use the cloud to store and manage the tracks.
I still wonder if people buy music anymore. Why do you buy the physical copies? Do you buy music? Honest questions I am thinking about.
