How do you listen to/acquire new music? Physical copies, digital downloads, or a subscription service like Apple Music or Spotify?

For me, Apple Music is the way to go. Literally every song I've ever looked for is there. And the price is very reasonable, I was spending over $10/mo on music anyway.
This is the answer for me as well. The library is great, though there are a couple of old favorites that aren't licensed, such as John Hiatt's The Tiki Bar is Open, but other than that, it gets the job done.
Spotify.
I more or less live in a garden of sonic ecstasy. Music finds me.
I torrent stuff and put in my music library but I also use Tidal
Calm down kanye
lol I just use their free trials I would never actually pay for it when Spotify is free on the desktop
Whew. OK. I thought you paid for that crap. :P
on the flip side, I wouldn't call it crap at all, it's better than Spotify with more exclusive albums
Spotify, but if I really like an album I buy it on vinyl.
Sirius XM. Fresh music all the time.
Google Play. $9 a month, and you can download anything in the store. Also Beatport.com
I do the YouTube Suggested Videos rabbit hole thing, then I buy the songs/albums I like on iTunes.
I like Amazon mp3. I stream a lot of their albums or if I'm being indecisive, I'll stream one of their stations or playlists. If I like an album enough, I'll download it. They have a monthly batch of albums on sale for $5 also so that's always cool to check out.
