I still use iTunes to buy music and then drop the files to my phone (Samsung Note 4). I also use an Ipod Classic with a speaker dock at home.

I really wish there was still Ipod classics being made. The battery on mine doesn't work. As you said, the highest capacity Ipod Touch is laughably expensive ($500 CDN).

I'm old school but I still like having a dedicated music player -- no camera, no web browsers, no games, no interruptions by calls or texts -- just my music library and playlists.

I don't mind streaming services as a discovery tool but still feel obliged to buy music that I really like and have access to the files on any device I own, and be able to use them offline.
