Your thoughts on assisted dying?

[Bob]

It's my brain that will die eventually.
I don't believe that we have a spirit or soul.

The mind is a bunch of experiences, the mind is a funny thing that is influenced by lived experience, and is what makes us who we are.

We know that mathematics exists independently of any material. We also know that information has an existence independently of any material. (Interestingly, information has no weight, no dimension, no energy.)

If I give you a compact disc that supposedly has a Beethoven Symphony on it, you can verify it by playing it (a machine that changes the information of the disc to sound waves, that you hear and your brain interprets it).

Question: does this music exist independently of the compact disc? If it does, where does it reside?
