    This is one of those things that I dream of doing one of these days. I’d love to have a massive media library stored locally, so that I’m not chained to streaming services.

      The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The next best time is today.

      Also, Amazon Music sells DRM-free MP3 files, if you don’t feel like sailing.

        Or just buy on Bandcamp if the artist is on there. Support artists really directly (they get 85-90% of what you pay for an item) and you usually get a royalty free lossless download as well as subscription-less streaming.

        Hope recent dealings doesn’t fuck up this absolute gem of a site.

      I was prepared for that to go the other way.

      “…Spotify fucks over artists”
