    If you never pay for music, artists won’t be able to make new music. Where possible buy as directly as possible from the artist, e.g., through bandcamp.

      Artists can’t pay rent now. They make music though.

      I work for a better world. I do not look for excuses to reward corporations that steal from artists to burn libraries, thanks.

        I feel like “not paying artists” makes as much for a better world as “not tipping waitstaff”.

          It’s really not something i consider worth my time and attention. I know your liberal programmed virtues tell you that supporting artists under capitalism with your dollar-vote is the done thing, but i don’t agree and won’t be wasting any more of my time trying to reason you out of such a convoluted position on something that barely matters.
