  Nobody but burglars can limit my access to my music collection.

  Or anything that forces you to leave home

      Early walkmans were quite unwieldy

        I had a Sony CD walkman, a later model with read ahead buffer. It did OK for normal walking.

    No actually I can carry all the music I want in the storage of my phone. It’s nice to have unlimited access to it even when there is no cellular data or wifi available. Sometimes I go fully out of range of all Internets but I still have music.

      That’s nice for small collection, but I don’t want to buy a 2 TB SD card for my phone, so streaming from my home server is a far better option.

      And with a music play with a cache, you can still listen to good portion of it when offline.
