    A music collection on your harddive is a joy for you personally for ever

    A music collection on a VPS hosting a Jellyfin with accounts for your family and friends is a joy forever for all your family and friends (as long as you pay the hosting fees)

    I've been saying that for years. Now I have about 250 albums drm-free on Bandcamp. A good chunk of that money went to the people making the music, too.

    I know there are people out there paying a subscription to Spotify who listen to the same dozen albums over and over, too.

    1.: I divide the payment of Family across 3 members.
    2.: I listen to so many songs individually, it would bankrupt me to buy every single song individually or the full album.
    3.: I'll buy an album (2nd hand discogs (so good)/ebay, digitally on wherever or bandcamp). If I don't like the music as much or the buying process is annoying, I'll pirate the song.

    So yeah. It depends.
