            Doesn’t answer the question.

            You can justify paying an evil corp however you want, all of the people you are arguing with here are just telling you there are better ways to support artists and discover music

              yes and they’re all wrong, from the linux losers who pirate and then rarely if ever buy music but virtue signal like they buy music on the daily to the bandcampers who have the music discovery capabilities of limewire and have to spend significantly more time finding music to listen to

              wrong about how much spotify pays out because they don’t know the calculations behind it

              they complain about low payouts while simultaneously using spotify free/ad supported which is bottom tier in payouts to artists, there’s even posts here linking to ways to ad block on spotify free so instead of artists getting a tiny bit they get nothing? and they’re preaching to me ???

              they’re wrong about timelines, record stores and software support

              what a pain i can think for myself 😮‍💨

              the only one i’ll give credit to is qobuz but fuck me are they vegan cunts about it, nyeh im using qobuz because i’m better than spotify users nyeh

              i am not most people, as you saw i listen to a shitload of music, some i like, some i don’t, some im ambivalent about, i support them all the same
