It’s similar to how music went from people buying albums to listening on iPods and phones.

The other choices are to buy albums from record stores, or acquire digital music from the High Seas.
iTunes and Apple Music is still one of the lowest-friction ways to purchase music; while downloaded Apple Music has DRM, iTunes Purchases don’t.
