Honestly, I only buy MP3 downloads because I'm too lazy to order physical things from amazon, plus having them shipped to Hong Kong is kinda of troublesome. If it weren't for that, I'd still listen to my records. When I'm home, that's what I do, no matter how bad not being able to scrobble hurts.
Examples of days I'll remember forever: Graduation day. Bother's wedding. The day I moved to Hong Kong. In the future, the day I'll move back. The The day I get married. The day my first child is born. The day someone close to me, a parent, relative, or (god forbid) significant other dies.
Point being, not The Beatles becoming available for digital download.
