    Fuck Spotify. You’re better off - in every way - pirating and buying one album a year

      Buying an album every month and ripping it for mobile is literally cheaper than Spoofy. No pirating required and there’s a real chance the artist might get a share!
      Edit: I do mean a CD, or vinyl if that tickles your fancy.

        Thank you. I was trying to make it seem super low effort. I still have all my CDs but pretty much just buy vinyl and FLAC these days.

      That implies it’s even goddamn possible to get music files. It’s a lot harder than I expected if they don’t have bandcamp. I suspect region also fucks with it.

      The last album I bought was slim shady in like 2001. I don’t even have anything that plays CDs anymore.

        So? Buy a digital album. There’s plenty of ways, including, but not limited to, bandcamp.

        Edit: Also, I never said ‘CDs’
