Yes, I think you are right. Both. Streaming services enable people to listen to
music from remote corners of the world.But they also encourage all people to
hear the same stuff. For example platforms like Spotify produce global "top 50"
charts. People listen to popular songs in the charts, and a song is listed in
the charts if people listen to it. Some positive feedback loops can be found
here which lead to bubbles - complexity theory :-)Without good old radio
stations we would certainly have less diversity and variety. -J.

you feel streaming services restrict our access to music or do they extend it?
