How do you listen to music?

And am I going to regret deleting my digital music library?

I got rid of my vinyl and tapes years ago. Most of my CDs are in boxes in my dad’s loft. I have 200+GB worth of digital music on my hard drive which I never listen to because I use Spotify now.

If Mrs Adster is at home I usually listen through headphones because our house is open plan. I still buy CDs (which don't get played) as we are going to move next year and I plan to have a room dedicated to music – I’ll reinvest in a decent hifi set up then.

I'm going to delete the digital music, it's just clogging up a drive and it can all be re downloaded. Or am I going to regret it? I'm ever so indecisive when it comes to this sort of thing
