>I don't know how people deal with so little storage. I'll keep a my 260gb and be happy about it. Thousands of FLAC at my fingertips. Mmmmm
>Most people use Spotify
>Most people also don't have super expensive headphones that can deliver FLAC quality potential.
Are audiophiles really this delusional? Do they think their shitty-ass smartphones can properly drive a pair of expensive headphones?
AFAIK iPhones have pretty decent DACs

yeah right, this one sure is not clever, talking about llittle storage and then having just 260gb. Kek everything under 3 tb should be burned.

Most audiophiles use dedicated players.
Most people who just like FLAC don't care nearly as much as audiophiles.
I think it's less delusion and more not really giving a shit.

I get people are allowed to do what they want with products, but why do people willfully waste so much space for no good reason?

And here I am, with a 512GB SSD formatted to 460, underpartitioned to 400 for reserve writes, using only 40GB of it, worried about the last 250GB of my 1TB HDD.

Streaming music barely uses any data and Spotify uses 320kbps OGG that you can download for offline play anyways

>>wasting data on streaming music to your phone
streaming music and video doesn't count against data unless you have a pajeet-tier carrier

Never heard about this in my country at least. Honestly, traffic shaping or categorization like this at all sounds odd.

Well, considering most 'audiophiles' have to run their FLAC files through through software that visualizes the frequency as opposed to being able to tell the difference with their ears..
Well, that alone should fill you in on how fucking placebo that shit is.
