Thanks for the quality info! I’ll check these guys out.

Good point on the artist support. I haven’t looked into bandcamp, but I will now.

It was like 4 claps too. No warning, just grabbed him up.

And I just had to go and remove the CD player from my old car. Sigh…

I mean, if you were happy with the service at 10.99, is one dollar that much of a deal breaker?

It kinda is. Lame of me maybe, but it’s not like Apple is paying out more to the artists or making the experience better. Just shaking us down for more money. Idk how many people use AM, but it’s gotta add up.

I do like the positivity of your silver lining though!

Nice, I’ll give that a look.

I feel like that’s a couple levels of effort more than I’d like. As good as it would be to support the artists by buying CDs I don’t want to buy more plastic and clutter the house. I could also do the same from the library, but that’s not supporting artists either.

 

I’ve had an Apple Music subscription for years and use it A LOT. I tried some alternatives (Tidal, Sirius, and maybe one other?) and wasn’t super happy with the options.

Is there a service that people recommend that is good, like $10/month or less, maybe gives better pay to artists? I’d like to spend on a better company if possible too. If Apple has enough money to buy gold trinkets for elected officials they probably don’t need more from me.

Gettin used like a fucking prop. What a big dumb bitch.

That’s completely incorrect. When Dems are in power they complain… that they don’t have the power to fix anything.

They also get bent for the MAGAts while putting on a sad face.

Huh. Imagine that….

[–] TheGoldenV@lemmy.world 5 points 6 hours ago

Well, I mean they weren’t free. The gov paid the drug companies quite a lot if I recall correctly. Free would be even better though.

[–] TheGoldenV@lemmy.world 10 points 9 hours ago

Good. Don’t give them anything.

Straight to the front!

 

Seattle this evening. Nice to see how the other half lives.

 

I caught this guy on our morning drive. We only had the chance to see 2 leopards and I was fortunate enough to get this shot before he headed into the brush.
