I have ~100 users downloaded ~1000 of my files in the last week alone. Music piracy is still alive and kicking. I encourage everyone to download and install SoulseekQT/Nicotine+/Seeker-Android and share whatever kind of music you have for everybody to download. Let's bring back music piracy!

I really don’t feel the need to. I pay fair prices for my music and get it how I want it when I want it where I want it.

Im not pirating to shaft people out of money

I'll be sticking to spotify personally out of convenience, and the fact that I'm paying for a family plan but to be fair paying that money directly to the artists you like will be much more effective while not supporting platforms that pay them very little for their work.

If you want though, using spotify adblock has been quite effective in my experiance. That way you have the convenience and you don't pay spotify shit
