Mull is a Firefox hardened browser that works perfectly out of the box.

Keeping FLAC is such a hassle, it's not even worth.

You don't get high quality mp3s from that.

I'm not advocating piracy as a way to support artists, but a way to fight against the big corps/streaming platforms/the system that just take the majority of revenue for themselves while hurting both the consumers and the creators. As I replied to other comments, I try to look for ways to directly support artists individually whenever I can.

Yessir

The first time I heard this song

https://soundcloud.com/blacklabelnsd/mastadon-rip (MASTADON - RIP)

I was blown away at how insane it is, like how could anyone ever make something like this at all is bewildering to me. The song structure and sounds didn't even make sense to me at first.

But now this genre of music is the thing I love the most. This song is my absolute favorite of all time.

Did you know that it has a Steam version now which is so much more accessible?

Obligatory Dwarf Fortress (I'm a DF simp). But also:

Against The Storm

Clanfolk

Foundation

Going Medieval

KeeperRL (This is a weird one)

I bet these are right up your alley.

Heyyyy it's my fellow dubstep enjoyer! Yeah those vinyl exclusive is such a pain.

Bandcamp my friend!

Yeah fuck those traders and scammers. Soulseek isn't created for that shit.

The thing is, you barely support the artists you're listening to when you use spotify.

Nah 500 subs is a good milestone.

Don't stress it out too much. The community will grow gradually.

His rise to fame is sooooooo deserving. Unlike anything I've ever seen.

Yeah I'm sure artists enjoy their 0.003 cents per stream a lot.

I just wish people try to comment on posts more. It sucks seeing all posts with 0 comments.

Okay, my bad I guess... Music piracy isn't DEAD, but it's not as strong as it used to be, hence the post.

Spotify doesn't do shit for the artists.

It use P2P network so I don't think you need VPN for it...? IDK I'm not an expert.

Get on it my friend!

I guess that will do if the kind of music you listen to doesn't need to be high quality.

I do when I can afford to, but you can't really buy every song you listen to, can you?

I buy music on bandcamp/directly from artists all the time. I just dislike streaming services, as I always want to have the files, and the money artists get from them is abbyssmal anyway.

Just tryna make a general post to remind people to participate in the music piracy scene. Seen a few posts asking about where to find music.

Album of the year.

Anything Fox Stevenson is a classic

Yeah I'll also post one song a day, hopefully some people will come

Glad to be here, let's try to bring up a proper community!

I recommend the Nicotine+ client for soulseek. It's pretty straight-foward. You get the app, create an account, then start looking for songs. If someone has what you want and had put it up for sharing then you can just download it directly from them. If you have a collection yourself, I encourage you to share it too, just like I do. Fuck traders and scammers.

Yep, still going strong

I have people download my files on soulseek/nicotine+ daily. Plus anyone that would pirate music probably already know how to rip it straight from streaming services.
