Why should I not pay #spotify for storing all my songs .. rather than setting up a #bitcoin node that stores txns of unknown people ?

These are 2 different things. Up to you
Its a bit comparing apples and oranges. You pay spotify for a service, you run a bitcoin node to verify txs from unknown people to you. You don't have to though, you can just trust the blockexplorers...etc
It costs around the same to host a computer with two terabyte of storage ... and 24 by 7 uptime .. electricity !
Yeah, but its still a completely different thing. Spotify doesn't store "your" songs, they might remove some from your playlist without asking you. A bitcoin tx wont just be taken from you. I don't know, its just a wierd comparison altogether 😅
I myself don't have a permanent list of songs I like :-) .. it is more dynamic than the rate of change at which Spotify !
It stops being weird when you approach from the perspective of a normie .. someone who is not in bitcoin rabbit hole sees this obsession over permanence crazy 🤣 .. it is like solving a problem that no one has !
When the music industry realizes what this man did Spotify Tidal Pandora SoundCloud will crumble. Tory released an album on the blockchain i dont remember which one and he made millions so did his listeners but now that he did that the sent megan the stallion to disrupt his message to the hiphop community.
Wait what ? Why would you put an album on Blockchain ?? What is the point ?
But why kill Spotify, Tidal or Sound Cloud .. these are amazing services !
