maybe i hate musicians, if they care about intellectual property that is 😹

IP is the smallest of all Spotify's problem.

can you tell me more?

You're music collection is essentially rentified. And since you pay, you except to not be the product. However, the only reason Spotify is allowed to continue to exist despite never ever turning a profit, is because even paying subscribers are the product: Spotify and music streaming services arw the only known source for data points on a persons emotional state. https://thebaffler.com/downstream/big-mood-machine-pelly Then of course there's the question as to the margins of your subscription that actually ends up in support of the music industry, rather than the armement bizniz... I mean, I could go on and on, but I'm gonna go down in a basement play some obscure records that you can't find on Spotify. 💜 I don't blame you, I get the convenience. We love music, but someone's gotta do the music.

i'd rader not use spotify, but i don't know who to go to for [legal] music streaming any suggestions? i was thinking maybe youtube music in a browser with adblock (although i would be giving up on lossless, which is ok)

Let me get back to you about that, ok? 💜 I got you! Talk to soon!

cheers

I love brave browser for this reason

Imagine listening to ads or paying money to not listen to ads. People forget how to download music themselves
