Yeah, little more than the s-word going on a lot of the time, but sometimes they apply tortuous reasoning.

What a chump. For someone who has spent his life boasting about how he 'swam in books', he is a phenomenal ignoramus.

And as the judge said during the Joyce trial, 'devious, truculent and unreliable'. It's hard to disentangle what he's saying out of genuine bigotry and what's contrarian posing, but really, who cares enough to try.

To be fair, I don't want physical copies of most media.

They don't have to be, or at least, not any physical media stored in my home.
I don't want CDs, DVDs, vinyls, blu rays, HDDs or SSDs with media on in my house. I just want a reliable way of accessing stuff online through the cloud.

you don't own the cloud and the companies you intrinsically trust with this data are subject to corporate whims

Yes, but I've got far more storage space available on my shelves now, and I can play stuff from any room or device in the house.

Presumably you still need to actually go to the room with the physical media in and put it on though.so can I
Far easier to pay a company to do it for you and allow you just to press play from anywhere.
My point I guess is that it's a bit of a dead end to blame consumers for not wanting to continue using archaic formats.
Not denying that Spotify and other similar companies are shit mind.

Small talk, eh
she said remote working does not allow it to occur in the same way in the “in-between moments” that come from physical proximity in between meetings, in corridors, at lunch or at coffee machines.
“So suddenly there are no opportunities to have that serendipity that normally happens,” she said.
Almuth McDowall, professor and assistant dean of organisational psychology at Birkbeck, University of London and associate fellow of the British Psychological Society, said small talk “humanises our work existence” and provides a space for idea exchange and creativity.
The return to workplaces is an opportunity to re-evaluate its purpose, she said. “Let’s rethink what the office is for – a place to find meaning, connection and a shared purpose.”
