My CD collection is ripped to MP3s and I listen to it on my PC or Sansa Clip Zip. I don't load these songs to either of my media players (Galaxy Player, iPod touch), because those devices are too large to carry around on a daily basis. Streaming is more than adequate for these devices, since I always have my Clip Zip with me.
Because of internet radio, I rarely buy music anymore. But when I do, it's from Amazon (never from iTunes); taking advantage of their $1~$2 MP3 credits and I generally get classical music. Since it's already stored in Amazon's cloud, it's easy to listen to at home or work.
My iPod touch is overwhelmingly used as a docked audio playback device - streaming music, news, audiobooks, podcasts, and iTunes U. With this new app, I can now add cloud music to that list.
My iTunes account has zero songs in it. I don't see any advantage I'd get by placing music there.
