Because owning music and paying once, is way better than paying every month and listening to the same popular tracks again and again.

Yes I know, Spotify has tons of tracks available, still, I like to go through my CDs and play it right away, no internet needed, no ads, no algorithms.

    I like Bandcamp, as I get to listen to whole tracks (a few times each), get to download and own them at $1 to $2 each.

    I don't spend much more than a Spotify subscription and now own so many wonderful tracks I can listen to anytime.

    And most of what I spend goes directly to the artist.

    ...own them at $1 to $2 each.

    Do you actually recieve DRM free files or are they still tied to Bandcamp? I understand we still don't own the song with physical media but a policy change or new license deal at Colombia isn't going to make the disc disappear.
