I’ve also been thinking about quitting Spotify. But I don’t think switching to Apple, YouTube, or Tidal is the answer. I’d rather go back to buying the music I listen to and actually getting the files, so I can download them and play them on whatever music player I want https://www.hearingthings.co/why-we-quit-spotify/

Saw a YouTube video with the title that released this week that said “the rise / return of pirating” 😂😅

But on the real though there’s EVEN.biz and Bandcamp & Formless.xyz & Sound.xyz — the options to support exist! It’s just not a unified listening experience, and “intentional” music listeners are unfortunately a subcategory of the overall music consumer.

I think it comes down to the fact that fans and artists have been conditioned to prioritize convenience over everything. Change doesn’t happen overnight, especially in an industry that’s been monopolized. But nothing changes if nothing changes. You’ve got to start asomewherend keep applying pressure. We need to shift our mindset toward building experiences and creating art that make Spotify and the big labels want to work with us, not the other way around. It’s not going to be easy, but it’s better than sitting back and letting Spotify act like they’re untouchable
