Many of my friends use it. I'm old school and just keep a collection of mp3s on multiple devices for backup.
It's all but impossible to purchase an mp3 anymore. Anywhere you can theoretically buy music does everything it can to lock you in to their ecosystem and prevent you from accessing your music outside of it.
It's not hard to download a YouTube video as an mp3, so all you've gotta do is rip it from one of the many places it's posted up.
