Storage space is not a problem. Typically, bandwidth is however. I've yet to find a compelling argument for streaming services such as Spotify. I don't care about "discovering other artists" and such BS.

(That said, I'm all in favor of having Ayu on Spotify, obviously - the more exposure she gets, the better...I'm only asking what Spotify can do for me)
If it is not needed, then it is not needed. My computer/phone does not have lots of storage, so having Spotify is great to me. I use the 'old school' playlist I made on Spotify for work etc., so it is like a portable version of my music library. I am also a little bit against downloading, since it did lots of damage to my previous computer, so to me it is a great thing. Plus, it is free streaming. You can pay for it, so you can use it offline and skip the commercials, but it is not necessairy.
