Chucklefucks. Some unsigned artists, especially underground rappers, uploaded their tracks to Youtube, long before Facebook video and Spotify. That I also use DLP to grab very interesting videos before they can be unlisted or deleted.
Which of course ends up being a boon for said underground artists to actually get a chance to spread via word-of-mouth. Can't have someone actually have success and creative freedom, no sir!
