    At this point Spotify offers less than competitors with Spotify hi-fi being a bunch of imaginary bullshit. I only subscribe to spotify when they offer me 3 months for the price of one.

    Raising prices would be absurd.

      What competitors do you recommend?
      I use soundcloud and have used Bandcamp but Bandcamp got sold to Epic.
      I have also heard of Faircamp which looks promising.

        Epic already sold off Bandcamp to another company (songtradr) and it’s probably not an improvement.

          I like Apple Music and would use them if it wasn’t so god damned difficult to upload my own music. I have an eclectic collection of music and though, to be fair, I haven’t listened to a lot of it in a while, I would still like the option. Being on Linux there is no iTunes option and getting it to run under Wine hasn’t worked for me. So right now I use YouTube Music because it’s so easy. I may switch to Plex now that I have a decent internet connection.

            It’s easy enough, just add your music to the Music app on macOS.

            Being on Linux there is no iTunes option and getting it to run under Wine hasn’t worked for me.

            The Windows version of iTunes is terrible anyway. The Music app on macOS is much better. Can’t you hackintosh it?
