"I'm willing to pay up to $1200 for a big anime titty"


iTunes is bad and forces me to install actual, real-life garbage. Windows Groove can't find my music somehow? Like bitch it's right there. MediaMonkey is bad too. Everything is bad.

i mean

obviously the right answer is to pirate everything and make your own music folders and don't deal with proprietary software that isn't actually anymore convenient than what already exists in basic windows and wouldn't if people didn't think dumb things like 'well, morally, i should give this streaming service a lot of money for facilitating something i could do on soulseek or whatever and not paying the person who made it anything'

the way ahead with this SHOULD be just individual websites connected on hubs where you buy music or whatever it is directly from the creator for a reasonable price that drives sales like say 5 bucks an album, straight to them after whatever payment/hub system they use takes a small cut

but i thought the op was just asking for a music player that wasn't dogshit and the answer is i think stop whining they're all fine you get to play anything you want in seconds

Okay. I'm using the Spotify playlist "Infinite Indie Folk," but I feel extremely gay. Tips?

spotify is really good but im afraid it'll have netflix/hulu problems where everyone pulls their poo poo randomly on/off and it'll be annoying as hell to tell whats been removed or not. So one day it will suddenly start sucking.

but whats wrong with mediamonkey? in mini-mode it's basically winamp. it's probably the best player there is if for some reason you're still pirating music

mainly because most of the royalties still go to the labels instead of the artists, which is the only reason spotify was able to operate in the US

cool so gently caress it, pirate stuff, go see them live if you like them

i'd subscribe to a thing that went 90% direct to whoever made it, 10% to the gently caress rear end website that anyone could make that facilitates it, but i don't see that place.

why do people inherently deserve a reward for making something because some big company decided to invest their probably criminally gotten money on them anyway

you aren't even paying them. you're paying joel mcbrownstein and haffel wessenwich in the office.

anybody who feels bad about fleecing all the middlemen of their 99% cut of all the music profits is a dumb idiot

itunes, spotify et al are a scam on the artists and you shouldnt support them
