But when it comes to online streaming, I sometimes wonder if we'd all be better off if there was one obviously-dominant main provider, so you didn't end up with a scenario where a third of your favourite bands/labels stream through Provider X, another third through Provider Y and the other third don't stream at all because there's no dominant provider.
Apple would seem to have the best resources to do it, via iTunes, but I doubt they will do it in the near future because they surely realise it would annihilate their download service.

And the sound quality is excellent! As is the flexibility 🙂
Indeed, but i'm sure there must be a scenario where some artists appear on one streaming service and not another.fr0g said:I'm not sure that makes sense in this context. I have used Music unlimited, Deezer, WiMP(Nordic market) and Spotify. They all get access to many of the same labels.So long as the label is being paid, then it (hopefully) shouldn't mean them limiting releases to just one service.As for Apple with iTunes, no chance!(as you suggest).
