Qobuz. $12.99 / month, over one half million high resolution albums and millions of red book CD. Indistinguishable from personally owned files (assuming equivalent electronics. Owning files as @yyzsantabarbara said is very ten years ago.

Yes for music you can buy a moral consciousness cheap by paying Qobuz and the like corporations , even if the musicians receive almost nothing... What about books ? The two important books i read in the last months are so costly that a student in Africa cannot eat for many months or for a year to pay for them... Is it moral to sell them to him instead of giving it to him free ? Dont ask me the answer ... It is IMMORAL to sell them ...Corporations make money not the writer... It is like the so called "vaccines" only rich countries buy them at first and before any poor country can ask for it , anyway they were revealed a medical fraud... Rich people afford a moral standpoint with so much ease... Pay a corporation and all is good in the best of all world 😊 My post is not against you ghdprentice, i know you are a very good man...my post is against corporations... I hate them... |
Here is an argument for streaming. Instead of having a limited set of CD’s or limited to hear what the radio plays (usually not very varied). Streaming opens up the world of recorded music. I tend to listen way more than in the past to my CD’s and old LP’s. Instead of the artists getting 0 money from me they now have a chance to get something. Now if millions of people are like me, and I think that is the case. New found money should be going to these artists. The rates could be better but this is still relatively new. |
