Is it even possible to pretend to claim to be a fan of music if you do not ultimately control your own access to said music?

how dare you imply that algorithmically curated slop with paid-for prominence served to you at woeful bitrates and laden with advertising is somehow inferior to actually owning things

Not really.
But no ones really a fan of or enthusiastic about music any more, it doesn’t have the cultural or personal relevance that it used to. For casual listening by people who don't mind too much what they’re actually listening to and use music primarily as background while they do something else, streaming services make a lot of sense. Sure, they have to listen to adverts every couple of minutes but its not like they were paying much attention to the music anyway, so I assume they mostly tune out the ads as well. Like I say, its just background noise.
