    Way ahead of you, I have never used Spotify, I don’t like the concept of music streaming

        Bandcamp was cool but then it got bought out by Epic. Truly, soulseek piracy is the only morally acceptable option

          Again.

          Bandcamp FTW.

          Or Boomkat.

          Even Qobuz is better, they allow the user to purchase and download albums.

            Or Ototoy, 7digital, Bleep, Newgrounds… Any site that allows me to give my money to the artist and leave me alone with my audio files do do whatever I want is good for me.

            And Apple famously did never kiss trumps ass

            Tim Apple famously kissing Trumps ass:

            During a carefully choreographed White House visit this week, Apple CEO Tim Cook gave Donald Trump a bespoke plaque made of Gorilla Glass and mounted on a 24-karat gold base, but the real value may have been what Apple took home.

            The gift, custom-designed by a former U.S. Marine turned Apple employee, featured a large circular slab of Corning-made Gorilla Glass with a hollowed Apple logo at its center. Trump’s name was etched near the top, while “Made in USA – 2025” was engraved at the base alongside Cook’s signature. The disc sat atop a solid gold base sourced from Utah, and even the packaging was produced domestically.

            Eh, fair point I guess, though it does mean that they get less money from me than a person subscribing to Apple Music.

      Its not for everyone, if you like what you like and rarely step outside of your repertoire its essentially pissing money up the wall.
