I would gladly pay good money to just download an MP4, but they have never given me that option.
Hello, yes i would like to buy high res music files, please show me a store that has a large catalog that I can choose from. Oh there are non?
I guess I'll have to look else where
There's qobuz but they don't have everything
Also Bandcamp.
Bot they also don't have a lot (i buy from both those sites btw)
Qobuz has a lot of DRM-free high-res music.
Oh thanks i haven't heard of that store I'll check em out
The media corps have people hooked on non downloadable streaming services. Today's youth don't know what an mp3 or a flac file is. Hell, a lot of them have never owned a CD. They're buying vinyl records (lol) and don't even own a vinyl record player.
Qobuz and Bandcamp have almost everything
I've been using bandcamp mostly for the indie artists i listen to, seems like Qobuz has a pretty decent selection of more mainstream artists
Bandcamp now is most user friendly, but even the creators cheat by deleting their 1$ offerings, and Yes I hate bundles of 600 albums for a price of 1$
You could use streamrip to download high quality FLACs from Tidal and Qobuz if you have a subscription.
gnutella
I liked beatport
Like GOG, but for movies. GOM?
