Man this makes me nostalgic for the old internet… Is it the song you want or is it something very different? Or does it have some hidden virus? You won’t know until tomorrow because dial up takes forever!
I know I’m in the wrong place to say this but, I don’t even know how to do that anymore. Spotify spoiled me. Now it’s hot garbage. I should’ve never given up owning my media.
What I dislike about Bandcamp is that the music you bought can disappear from your Bandcamp library/account.
There’s still a need to download everything and make sure you have backups, etc.
“Buy to own”, but only as far as you download it. I was surprised when I learned they can disappear, and indeed had it happen to me. It also means you have to track what you bought differently.
Interesting. I have yet to lose anything from my library on Bandcamp but that would piss me off if it happened.
I do download and backup my purchases though. I download in both FLAC and mp3 320 formats so I have my bases covered just in case. It is annoying to keep my purchases separate though.

Try Bandcamp as well for nonpiracy options. Buy and download FLAC albums from the artists themselves. No DRM
Bandcamp is great. I buy albums on Bandcamp when I can. Too many artists are not on there though, or only have older albums available.
