I have got to admit I canned Spotify subs years ago - but how are they managing to grow their subscriber base whn it is now going to be £11.99 in the UK? That is way, way too high for what it offers...

I've settled for Qobuz. Its discovery features are terrible, but it's basically a music storefront with a streaming library. High-quality, had basically my whole library and I can buy albums directly for download.

    Oh I didn't know you could buy music from Qobuz, is it a better system than bandcamp? I've never used either so Im at the perfect time to find a good one.

    Both are great, and I think complement eachother nicely. Qobuz mostly focuses on label offered music catalogues, while Bandcamp has always catered to indies. If an artist offers their music through Bandcamp, I still prefer to make my purchases there, but if the artist is signed to a label then it's a good shot Qobuz has it.

    Either service offers the music in the highest quality provided, though lossless versions through Qobuz do tend to be priced a few dollars higher than the regular album.
