    I acquire the MP3 of the song I want from where ever I can find it. Be that buying it, YouTube converter or elsewhere. Then copy it to the SD card on my phone to listen to. No ads, no data connection needed. I even bother to set the album covers and tags up so it is all searchable in the Oto app I use on my phone.

      Which is great when you already have established bands and albums you want to listen to. Not so great for discovering new music and genres which is where Spotify really shines for me.

      I used to use YouTube converter. However I got Spotify and it was beyond easy. Also google shut down google music.

      Converting vs Spotify is a no brainier though. Costs like $30 a year
