No, at this point I think the vast majority of people just use streaming services.
The second biggest group, but probably much smaller, it’s people like me who both have a library and a streaming service.
After that, smaller again, I would assume it’s people who have just a library. The majority of these are probably files bought from Apple and Microsoft and Amazon. Those are all formats that the iPhone can play.
In last place is people who use more unique formats like FLAC. I understand why you would want it over the other formats. But I think it’s by far the least common case.
Because it is difficult to do.

FLACs are not the act of an extremist.
