I duno, how do you guys find new music to listen to?
Sometimes I’ll just put a playlist on with 1000 tracks in it, maybe a couple I like, most are ok, some of them i skip, in my world they all get paid, in your world only a tiny tiny fraction of them do
just how rich do you think i am? you think i can afford to go through 10’s of thousands of back catalogs trying to find the music im listening to to buy?
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

The same way anybody did before Spotify? Listen to something, if you like it then buy it, if you don’t then don’t.

god damn boomers
How much have you spent paying Spotify to own absolutely nothing?

Spotify is the only subscription I have and I find it immense value supporting artists and discovering new music
ty for asking :)
Doesn’t answer the question.
