>paying money for music

no

I just prefer to have the files.
Spotify does have a very good selection of music from my home country, though - being a small country, pirating can be a bit hard since not everything gets uploaded. So it can be tempting.

But eh, 10 euros saved a month, I can buy 8-15 CD:s or digital releases a year w/ that, or a bunch of vinyl if I want cooler items. That should cover every truly good or rare release of a given year. And yes, I do actually buy music, and I also go to local shows at least monthly, so I'm doing my job supporting the music.

>>59528244

I used to pirate but then you need to go download every album or whatever. Now just look up the artist, album, number or whatever and add it.

Funny that OP says if you don't have Spotify you are poor but when I look at 95% of the Artist's profiles most music is heard from
NEW MEXICO.
What a fucking joke OP.

>>59528189
I would say no but it kind of is since it's 5 shekels monthly if you're a student. Literally the price of like a sandwich

>>59528142
I do, the best is that you can use the browser version and adblocker catches the ads.

The bad:
- It keeps recommending me the same songs that I've "disliked" a few times
- The selection of music in the genres I listen to (low-fi techno, deep house) seems fairly limited or I'm just a pleb, idk

The good:
- Sharing a family account with 5 other people, it's cheap
- Sound quality is good
- Client is reasonably ok and not that laggy

I'd rather use online radio streams and not some "catered to you" bullshit. If I wanted to hear a specific song I'd just download it or request it on a stream.

>>59528921
>pff if I wanted to hear a song I'd much rather go through some garbage mp3 sites for the download or listen to songs that are similar to it but not really on a radio stream rather than just listening to it on spotify

>>59528142
because the web version is awful and the desktop client is a buggy mess

>>59528965
>not already having songx that you want to hear on your local machine
what kind of pleb are you that you don't hoard music?

Save yourself some money, just go to radio.garden and listen to the entire planet, OP.

Because I'm using picrel (with downloader). Streams are 320kbps mp3 for free, can fetch albums in an instant for offline listening.

Just like spotify, the official client is garbage, but at least they don't actively cockblock alternative clients from their api.

Protip : no ads play on the web player when using an adblock.

It uses too much data. Im not connected to WiFi 24/7 so having music on my phone is much better when out.

>>59529029
Tf is that?

>>59528632
I use SoundCloud for my lofi and more obscure stuff that's now on Spotify

>>59529072
It uses so little data though....I always switch to my data when I stream music from it and it always comes out to less than a quarter gb per month, and I'm a heavy user at that too.

>>59529089

>>59529090
sc (and bandcamp) is fine for hipster stuff, but it gets old eventually.

Annoyingly, sc niggers who manage to push their shit onto spotify/bandcamp tend to baleet their sc, in order to drive sales.

>>59529116

>>59528142
They don't have OST from games, I'm poor and I don't know anything about music nowadays.

>>59528632

No, you're not a pleb. While I love Spotify, the radio is crap. It really does have a terrible habit of constantly replaying music you've 'disiked'.

>>59529139
Damn. Could be your provider possibly. Some list your usage as higher than it is. I don't have this but my friends have T-Mobile and them as well some other providers don't count music streaming as part of your usage so that's pretty awesome. But try turning off high quality when you're on data it might help

>>59528374

I understand that if you're really into music it's probably not the best choice.

But I'm a pleb and I have 1 or maybe 2 songs per artist in my spotify because I just like to listen to songs that sound good and mostly only 1 or 2 songs in an album are good the rest is pretty boring

>>59529199
Does sub 320kbps sound any different?
I live in Australia, the telecom companies over here are fucking dirty Jews.

>>59529253
Even 128k is ok if you're used to mp3 "sizzly" sound. 128k AAC is transparent for most people, unless you're trained sound engineer.

FLAC and 320kbps is a meme, but if you're not concerned about bandwidth, why not.

Now I download individual songs I like via an app in my smartphone or a youtube converter

>>59529467

Presumably you're macfag where iTunes work fine. Believe it or not, on windows, iTunes is so bad it triumphs even spotify. High CPU usage, lagged UI and random crashes. I have no idea what apple did there, presumably try to coax winfags to buy apple pcs?

1) use yandex.com as your primary search engine because they don't take down anything

2) type in: "<name of the artist> <album> itunes plus m4a"
or "<name of the artist> <album> rar"
and look for links. many are direct links.

I can find 95% of shit I'm looking for this way.

any idiot here who uses spotify should check if their password is floating around

>My 13 character password that was unique to that account, consists of letters, numbers, symbols and uppercase letters. I did a simple google search for the MD5 hash of that password and found a German website absolutely loaded with MD5 hashes and their decrypted values. I could see my password plain as day in the list in plain text format.

>The possibility of someone guessing my password is very slim. I only use it at home, on my phone, TV, PS4 and on my Echo.

I can only assume Spotify has been compromised again and someone has dumped the database hashes online and they've been decrypted.

Best of every world. My only wish is that everyone would switch to opus.

Any tips on how to crack Premium and use offline mode? Too poor to pay 5$ a month for offline mode.

>being so lazy you can't even make a simple music library

>>59542025
I like using the free version for some music suggestions though.

Most of it is shit, but sometimes there is some pretty good stuff I would have never found otherwise

I get it for free cause of my job

>>59541993
If you're on android just Google modded Spotify apk

> Pirate Bay is down
What are some torrenting sites that don't require registration and are just as reliable?
Also, don't you need Internet to stream? I'm in tunnels all the time, I need offline capability

>>59542989
If you pay for it you can download the songs for offline playback.

The files are encrypted and bound to your account, so I don't think its possible to hack that shit. If you want offline playback you need to pay some shekels

Yep, not happening. Looks like it's time to set sail from Pirate Bay and search for something else

I'm open for reccs

Unless you are part of a good private tracker the glory days for torrents is over.

I bit the bullet and donated the one-time $10 for IPT. Still cheaper then cable, and I can get everything in 1080p. It is a normie tracker though in terms of content, so your not going to find your special anime or music artist on there. I am a normie though, so I don't care.

>>59528548
So that means that if I don't use Spotify and pirate my music instead I get to buy a sandwich? Sounds pretty great.

>>59528142
Do they have a good linux client yet?

IIRC there's a few lignux spotify hacky builds that remove the ads from the free version

none of the obscure shit im into and mostly unfinished artist libraries if they do have said shit

>>59543174
I use it on solus and it works fine

>>59543191
You mean the online client? I'd rather not use flash.

>>59529072
You can download any songs you want through the app while on wifi. They're locked to the app, though. I listen to suggested songs at home and download the ones I like for playlists when i leave home

>>59543213
No, a client that I downloaded through the third party section of the solus software center or whatever it's called.

>>59528142
Because I don't listen to garbage spliced together by shills out of recordings of 20 year old women having orgasms. Haven't you heard? It's called "pop" because they forgot the extra "o." Audio quality ain't shit without music quality.

Fuck all industry artists. The only good musicians are hobbyists, game development teams, and people who lived hundreds of years ago, and you can only find their shit on YouTube and pirate it with the command line tool "youtube-dl."

You have all of that and more packed into one single application. you can download eveything for offline use. if you come home you can open spotify.exe and resume playing the exact same song on your computer or your chromecast or your television. I'm not even playing son, I used to have a mediocre music folder but those days are over

>>59543471
they shouldn't call that "user pressure". I give 0 fucks if or when the artist profits off me

>>59528142
wtf is it?

>>59528142
I download my music.. with higher q

I used spotify only to look up the music I wanted to pirate.
Now I use Deezer. Basically the same music, better quality and there is a program, that downloads music from Deezer without premium account.
It's almost too comfortable..

>>59543732

Try 1 month subscription (free or not). Then look for some page for transfer it to YouTube and download it

Can I listen to anime OSTs, specially the entire collection of Steins;Gate, and doujin albums like EastNewSound, LiLA'c Records, or Demetori in Spotify?

>>59528142
I have ~200 GB of music. I've been relistening to all of it. It's taken me a year and I'm not even half done. Don't need Shittify.

I use Google Play Music because I've sold my soul to the botnet

I use deezer and its.simply better than looking for stuff to pirate

>>59544364

At home currently, don't have Spotify or Flash installed, but web searches seem to yield some info.

I was suprised to learn that not only can I listen to the Danger Mouse theme on Spotify, I can listen to the French version of the Danger Mouse theme.

>>59545425
Nothing for LiLA'c Records nor STEINS;GATE 8bit - Henikuukan no Octet, so that tells, me it only has the most generic stuff. It's shit, then.
Also, it has ads. Might as well buy a 128GB Micro SD, download everything and listen offline.

CMUS exists

>paying for music

no.
you're gonna dance monkey, and you're gonna do it for FREE.

Can't upload my music to my online library like I can with Apple Music

I listen to too many soundcloud rappers to switch between Music app and Spotify

Also, I get Apple Music for $4.99/mo through the student discount

>>59528142
I only pirate if I don't want to support a company or if they purposefully make their content extremely difficult to legitimately obtain. I've molded my morals to fit my wallet and it feels pretty good.

Spotify makes content easy to access legitimately though, so if I just want to listen to a song, my previously beneficial moral code now demands I listen legitimately.

I use it on my phone.
Doesn't cost to much, sound quality is fine, nearly all the music i listen to is on it and it has suggested me lots of music i wouldn't have found otherwise.

>streaming music
>not just having what you want on a 128gb micro sd card in FLAC.

In my commute and at work I barely have enough reception to stream anyway.

>>59528142
Thanks, but I like my ssd, I don't want to write 700GB/day to it

>>59543310
Even if there's something they don't have, you can still sync mp3s with it ("local files")

Won't let me search to see if it has the artists and songs I like.

I use Goygle Play Music.

>>59528142
