Streaming -vs- Download -vs- Cloud
This is to primarily help me decide which method will work best for me.
I initially assumed downloading files directly to my SD card would be the most reliable option as my ability to play my desired songs wouldn't be adversely effected by poor cell coverage and/or lack of WiFi. I then began reading a multitude of articles and found that alot of people believe downloading to be an outdated(or soon to be so) way of listening to music so I'm taking a deeper look at this.
I'm one of those people who often likes to listen to particular songs so services like Pandora usually fall short of meeting my expectations. I like the PC versions of services like Spotify & Rhapsody but have found their mobile versions to be lacking as I can't listen to what i want if I'm somewhere with poor or no cell signal or WiFi. I have not looked into cloud storage very much but would assume I would still need cell service or WiFi to play my music on my phone. If I'm wrong about that please set me straight.
