Spotify accomdates "local" copies.  That's handy for times when  
[1] regular power is out and when a generator at the cottage is  
available, and when [2] there are people like me who don't have  
the 24/7 traditional DSL/satellite/cable internet services, but  
can then enjoy a few pre-saved playlists at any time.

The vast collection of music that I have are either genuine  
local mp3 purchases or physical LPs and CDs, but I don't seem  
to play those as much anymore.
