Sure. I could. But you misunderstand my point. As Gaben said, piracy is a service problem, not a cost problem. Spotify's service is clean and very nice to use, add on the available library and it makes it very worth my time to pay for and support it.

Hell yeah. I’ll pay a reasonable price for a service with lots of stuff on it if it’s reliable and has a great UI. I’ve considered Spotify, even though I have my beautiful flac collection. It’d be nice not to have to worry about converting them to my phone so I can listen in my car.
