Because there is no need to send music over the internet when you can just save it locally and have it everywhere and always with you.
To be clear: I am talking about running my own sever/stream.
I almost always have it with me because the internet is nearly everywhere. On a plane, in my car, at work, at the place I am typing this to you which is thousands of miles away from my server. When I am at home it still is playing from my NAS on my local network.
How am I supposed to cart around 5 TB of music with me? I don’t want to have to copy a tiny bit to my laptop, tablet, phone, and steamdeck. If I absolutely know I am going to be out of internet range I can have it copied temporarily to a device with downloads, or syncthing. Even doing that at least I can be nearly anywhere in the world to do the download.
Its not like this is hard, or expensive.
