Love the idea of bandcamp, but sucks that there are no artists there I am interested in. I just download M4A (MP4 audio) files off of YouTube lol
Yea I do find that often there is no bandcamp page, or it's 5 years old with no new albums. In those cases my next check is qobiz as they tend to have more large artists.
