Hi,
A long long time ago I used to download my entire library and it took a big chunk of my memory naturally. I'm trying to figure out what's the best way to save. I figured maybe iTunes has a way to stream the library like Spotify without needing to actually download anything but every time I purchase something it automatically downloads it. I also remember years back moving my library to an external hard drive but that was kind of a hassle also because half the library ended up on the HD and the other ended up on the comp and everything was a mess.

Currently because I changed computers, my library isn't downloaded so I can stream the songs which is great but I just came across a big album with a good bargain deal and now I'm worried about buying it. I don't want it to download the entire thing.

Any suggestions on how to manage music efficiently?
