Why, are you not able to stream it?
I'm not sure that's true. Are there numbers you can point to to back that up?
I can make Spotify store locally. It's really weird how fast that is come to think of it. Very useful for patchy data. Easy to skip tracks you don't want as well.
I use Spotify but I think ITunes does similar. I feel strongly about Apple products though so I've no experience.
Although this has no impact on streaming or use of temporary downloads, or any relevance to your need for purchasing audio files, I am what many would refer to as an audiophile.
I have worked as an audio engineer in music recording and post production, I own professional audio reproduction equipment and I make my own music as a hobby.
Even so, being able to throw on a favourite album, old or new, while driving or at the beach or a friend's house, is to me akin to magic.
