I use bandcamp, not quite a cd, but you get access to a flac or mp3 depending on your choice and apparently they do a decent job looking after their artists. They even have days where all money goes to the artist
I go out of my way to actually purchase music/books if they're offered in a DRM free way. If I can't download whatever I just paid for without needing some crappy App to use it, I don't own it. I don't pay for things I don't own.
While on the topic for people interested in Light Novels J-Novel Club offers DRM free Epub files of their books (username is embedded into the file but that's hardly DRM), plus their subscription/pricing model is very fair imo. Can definitely recommend.
Bandcamp Fridays! I buy music through bandcamp too. Some music is available as WAV but I usually go for flac. I love having my music collection on my own hardware again after years of using a streaming subscription. Somehow it feels closer to my heart, where it belongs.
If you don't live in the US, many of these streaming services are not available
Bandcamp isn't a streaming service. It's also very rare for them not to have a release for sale globally. It does happen, but I can count on one hand how often it's happened in the last 15yrs I've been using the service.
Ok cool. I'll check it out. Thanks 👍
