i realized i’m a big local music enjoyer, all the music i listen to is stored in files and i even have vlc on my phone to listen to it. (all of them are legally downloaded of course!!) sadly yesterday i moved all those files to my chromebook and it really slowed it down, (the files total 1gigabyte, woa). so why not get an mp3 player?? that can save storage on my phone and chromebook.

by the way i did try youtube music one time but i realized, what if youtube music disappeared?? all the music would be gone! so yea that’s why i prefer local files

    I too got burned on music streaming services. When Spotify replaced my Hotel California with a cover song bad enough to make my ears bleed. Local files forever.

    Store your mp3s on a cloud storage, and use androids CloudPlayer to stream them anywhere. I got 24 gb of mp3s on onedrive. And it takes up no space on my laptop because I’ve set it to download on demand. And the files are always downloaded to my main computer so that my backup picks them up.
