A lot of artists have their music on Bandcamp. I have purchased lots of digital + CDs, and you can pick multiple download formats (lossless FLAC or ALAC and lossy OGG and AAC). Not to mention, they support the artists better, I think.
It's nice having a locally stored music library. Regardless of what streaming service you might use, I would get digital and physical CD/ vinyl copies of your favorite music.
A cheap DVD player with a digital output can connect to your Modi DAC (SPDIF coax) and should come with a remote, too.
My personal DVD player is an open-box Sony I got for <$20.00US and sounds fine, though it does feel cheap.
I honestly didn't even think that CDs were still sold anymore for bands lol. I probably sound stupid thinking that but I figured everything was digital now. I think I prefer digital mainly because I can store it easier but if I risk quality I'd rather not.
