We just subscribe to online services. The streaming revolution has brought us vast amounts of video and music entertainment at the click of a button. While Spotify may not have all the music we want to listen to, if we cancel our subscription, we lose access to its large catalog of music. With cloud storage services, putting our documents and other files online is simple, but pulling them out can be a pain. Fortunately, there are some approaches to taking control of our media while enjoying the benefits of subscription services.
