Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Working out at home - Plex from my NAS or my Pandora plus subscription.
Walking or at the gym (pre-virus) - I have an Apple iPod nano with music that iTunes grabbed off my NAS or that I purchased from the Apple store. Nano is tiny so carrying it in my pocket is easy.
In the car - I used iTunes to download tunes to a low profile flash drive. Or I don't stream but instead listen to the FM radio. I can (but don't) use my cell phone to bluetooth to my car receiver and stream my Pandora plus subscription.
Background music while in the kitchen - I talk to my Amazon Echo dot: "Alexa, ask Plex to shuffle the playlist Workout." Or "Alexa, ask Plex to shuffle the playlist Christmas."
In the shower (YES, IN THE SHOWER) - I have a small TV in the bathroom with a $20 soundbar and a Roku. I stream a Plex playlist. Or, I Pandora.
If I was in the car more, I might consider other products. On small trips, I would not use it. On long trips DW insists i talk to her or when I am napping, she gets out one of her mp3 talking books. In theory, I only nap when I am the passenger.
From time to time, I see the ads for the major car streaming/pay broadcast subscription company. Don't like their marketing/subscription methods.
What brilliant suggestions do you have for me to expand/improve my listening?
