There are plenty of controversies surrounding Spotify, but what really made me cancel my subscription was the fact that they ran recruitment ads for ICE. Boycott Spotify!

This happened quite some time ago.
AudiCable gives you the ability to download your Spotify library to your storage outside of the Spotify app. This will violate their ToS and they’ll lock you out of your account until you contact support and tell them you won’t do it again. I haven’t tried this (yet) but I suspect you can download your Spotify library inside the app, turn off your internet, run AudiCable and transfer your library, then uninstall Spotify and they’ll presumably never know.

Qobuz is a outstanding music streaming service. If you’re into EDM then check out Beatport.
I used Sunnify for Linux to convert my downloaded Spotify songs to mp3. Now I have all of my songs locally. Then I deleted my account.
So theft…
Help me understand. You’re happy to boot lick Spotify for severely under paying artists (theft), with a CEO who openly supports war crimes (morally reprehensible) and happily runs ICE ads (also morally bankrupt) while praising Joe Rogan (need I say more) and yet you draw the line at someone ripping their mp3 collection?
The fuck outta here with that joke-ass troll shit. These takes are so pathetic there’s no way it’s a legit Lemmy user.
Huh interesting so you think theft is ok but just using a service is worse? That’s insane. Do you have an apple phone? Do you use Google? You hypocrite
Piracy isn’t theft if buying isn’t owning.
I agree with this statement.
I didn’t think Qobuz was great. Their algorithm needs work. I’ve had much better luck with Tidal. Qobuz gives slightly more money to the artists, but they’re both better at that than Spotify.
I agree on the Qobuz algorithm. The sound quality is top-tier, though I suppose you could say the same about Tidal.
Plus they are anti ai music unlike tidal who seem to just throw their hands up
