Cause it's more convenient and I don't have to transfer all my collection to my audio player. It's inaudible anyway especially in my usecase which is traveling. I just keep my collection just in case I need it (like when I don't have internet to stream). Also, I don't have 4tb of storage in my phone.

But do you listen to all your 4tb? How many tracks do you have? I would just put all my favorite tracks on my player

3k in my phone. The 4tb is divided into different Bluray, DVD-A, and SACDs. One Bluray is about 10GB. The biggest is around 42GB IIRC (John Lennon).

I have a policy to transfer full albums on mobile devices so my songs don't get lonely and start missing their friends.

Sacrifice what quality? Not even discernable if you don't placebo yourself

Idk, Spotify is fine. I'm convinced people only hate on it because it's popular. My only real problem with it is that dealing with the queue can be a bit annoying, but for the convenience of not having to download music and having playlists sync across devices I won't complain. Tidal's UI is basically the same and people love that because of its placebo "audio quality"
