A Ruby Retort [not a report] from 15 year old Chantelle...

21 July 2009

On music:
I never buy CDs, I have a CD collection from when I was younger, but I can’t even remember the last time I bought a CD, it was from ages ago. I don’t use Spotify, I don’t know what it is at all, never heard of it. I use Limewire, to download all my music , though I have sometimes got music off of iTunes, though that’s just when I had the vouchers. I don’t do music streaming, what is it? It sounds interesting especially if it’s free, and it would be interesting… It has to go on my iPod though, if not then no! Actually I dunno, I’d probably use both… Actually no I wouldn’t use Spotify if it didn’t go on my iPod.

It’s going to be very interesting when Spotify gets its mobile app out the door (although I’m sure the kids will bulk at the monthly subscription it’ll need), as there’s a whole generation now that not only hasn’t really ever bought CDs, they’re not too interested in music ownership full stop.
