Teaching music, one of the biggest things that streaming services have obliterated is the question, "what's in your record collection?"
i've also noticed for years a kind of melancholy that's formed around the hyperabundance of "content." once questions like "what should i listen to? what should i read?" were answered by a numbingly infinite availability of everything ever made, the question shifted to "_why_ should i listen/read?"

v useful thread with some v useful replies
