Again this is about choice. With things like Soundcloud, you don't even have to register to download music, and I've downloaded my fair share of 1-2 hour long DJ sets from there. Basically enough music to last my entire lifetime and I will never be bored. DJ sets are great because there's no skipping through tracks, and you can have them playing in the background when doing coding, and you can discover music accidentally that way. Also there seems to be no limits on Soundcloud with regards to how much you can download. It's all you can eat, which is refreshing. I'm curious how they can achieve this though. I know they have a paid / pro plan there, but still it screams of too much upfront value and I do worry about their viability into the future. But for now Soundcloud is exponentially better than any other service out there.

I suggest you to check out Mixcloud. It's a service made specially for uploading mixes, but it doesn't allow you to download them for the reasons I said earlier. It's also free and does not require you to sign up for an account.
