   Yes, lots of what Spotify (and others) do are great benefits. I've   
   discovered several new bands that I enjoy (and some that I don't) by   
   playing Spotify's Daily Mixes or other playlists that I come across.

   True, very much so.    
      
   I often tell myself I am going to sit down, and listen to this album or   
   that (streaming) and it's not long before I am distracted, doing   
   something on my phone, tablet or laptop. That probably would not happen   
   so easily if I was listing to an album.    
      
   I am still trying to set aside some listening time, but it's almost   
   impossible sometimes.
