What is really the purpose of streaming??


What is really the main purpose on streaming?? Is it just a big convenience to have music and artists at your fingertips? Is it that you get a better sound than cds? What if you have a cd player with an exceptional DAC built in like the Rega Saturn R . To me when cds came out i never looked back on my LPs. I thought cd playback was the best. Now i hear alot of streaming talk. Can someone clarify this to me ?

I stream for pre purchase of CDs, SACD's and for convenience of listening to music I would not necessarily purchase.  In addition to my computer streamer with the audioquest Firefly, my amazon Dot is great as a streamer to my Bluetooth speakers. I can get Instant back round music for just about any genre.  Love it all!
