When Neil Young asked us to switch to Tidal, I went along and loved that it paid the artists 10x more per stream.

But Tidal is American owned, spotify isn’t…

I’m struggling on this one, a lot of the lil punk bands I love could really use the revenue but, y’know, trade war etc.

Anyone have any thoughts to assuage a guilty conscience on this one?

    Just pirate it then. Artists are making pennies from all the services and real ones would rather you still listen if you can’t pay.

      Ehhh pirating everything ahead of time is more hassle.

      But folks have suggested some interesting French options that I’ll give a whirl!
