I’ve had an Apple Music subscription for years and use it A LOT. I tried some alternatives (Tidal, Sirius, and maybe one other?) and wasn’t super happy with the options.
Is there a service that people recommend that is good, like $10/month or less, maybe gives better pay to artists? I’d like to spend on a better company if possible too. If Apple has enough money to buy gold trinkets for elected officials they probably don’t need more from me.
Bandcamp? Pretty much 100% (excluding deals with a label)
Any other CD label? I don’t care what the artist negotiated with their label. That is their own problem who they chose to do business with. But Spotify/Apple can’t skim of 30% of the sale price.
And I don’t buy on iTunes.
I buy on OTOTOY and other sites I can get FLAC files from.
