Genuinely curious about this. I think it’s been about 4-5 years for me.

I started using Spotify for everything in late 2012 and never looked back. The only albums I've bought since were BEYONCE and Lemonade because I "had to."

I don't think I've ever used iTunes specifically?
But, if it doesn't have to be iTunes, but instead any music service, I bought Harry's "Fine Line" via Amazon and I listen/stream from there as well.

This year. I have a couple bucks and change left on a gift card, so I will get a couple more items, at the least, soon.

I used to use iTunes and Amazon to purchase music from about 2008-2014. The most recent albums I bought were 1989, 25, and reputation because they weren’t available to stream. So 2017.

I'm glad "Before 2015" is an option. I believe it was either 2012 or 2013 - I jumped onto the Spotify bandwagon soon after it gained momentum in the US in 2013.
I have purchased Janet's Unbreakable, Katy Perry's Witness (a pity redemption from her concert tix), and Kylie's DISCO as physical media and bought JoJo's Mad Love and Kesha's Rainbow from the Google Play store along with digital concert redemptions for Madonna's Rebel Heart and Alanis' Such Pretty Forks In the Road.
Other than that, I've been all-streaming all the time for nearly 7 years.

Disco- excellent point. Though iTunes is digital. ;) Imagine if streaming outlets ever shut down, accidental or intentional.

Last week I bought "Swimming in the Stars" and "Matches" when the Glory reissues came out since it's not coming out on CD.
Usually if I spend money on music, it will be CDs or vinyl, but I did buy a couple albums on iTunes earlier this year that were older UK only releases that I couldn't get my hands on physically and I wanted to have in my library. I have an iPod Classic I still use when I'm at work and I like to have my favorites on there.

I was trying to listen to G-Eazy's recently released alternate album Everything's Strange Here last week and it was geo-restricted on Spotify for a few days. It's working now. It's super weird because he's signed to a label in the U.S.

Has anyone noticed that iTunes now charges tax because many states are finding they are losing tax revenues through Internet sales and are passing laws requiring any company with a physical presence to collect taxes based on the billing zip. This is ridiculous.

This is ridiculous. Netflix is doing this as well, beginning in July, I think.

So I randomly was able to see exactly when it was and what it was. Looks like the last song I purchased from iTunes was "Stir Fry" by Migos on February 15, 2018. The last EP was Qveen Herby's EP 2 on February 11, 2018. The last album was The Architect by Paloma Faith on February 8, 2018. Just over 3 years ago. Time flies.
