tysm. Bandcamp was one of the few “platforms” I was giving any money, because it’s a cool way to get money to indie artists I like. I really thought they were above this. At least in the same way that Valve’s Steam might be founded on the evils of being a middleman, but their company is somewhat ethical minus that fact. I suppose I let the DRM-lessness of Bandcamp make me extrapolate too much about their business practices. :(

Actually we need to remember, that there could be alternatives for end-users (in this case - listeners), but it’s not about them. It’s about artists, which deserve to have a possibilty to get revenue from their work and not being used by music industry. It’s a brand in a good meaning of what it represents.

Btw, here’s a list if Epic sins:

I mean technically tidal and deezer because they have the highest payouts (super shitty but much better than spotify)

resonate is the best option but it does not have much music yet
