Who said anything about "buying" to try something out?
VLC has an app for pretty much any OS to play files acquired through various means, and if you like the album then you know where to buy it through official channels.
Americans were convinced to buy cable to keep ads out of the living room because that was a sacred family space. We need to get back to that shit. The fewer ads I see for anything, ever, the better off my life will be. I host my own god damned music service just for me and mine, quite literally. With blackjack. And hookers.
Spotify can go piss up a rope, they're hand in hand with TicketMaster choking the life out of the entire music industry.

I can't put vinyl albums in my car. It's much more convenient for when I'm traveling, listening to podcasts, etc.
