I’ve had an Apple Music subscription for years and use it A LOT. I tried some alternatives (Tidal, Sirius, and maybe one other?) and wasn’t super happy with the options.
Is there a service that people recommend that is good, like $10/month or less, maybe gives better pay to artists? I’d like to spend on a better company if possible too. If Apple has enough money to buy gold trinkets for elected officials they probably don’t need more from me.
Apple Music has the second highest payouts to artists, only behind Tidal which is much more expensive.
You really can’t have it both ways. You either want artists to get paid, in which case you’re paying more, or you want it for cheap and artists get paid less.
Oh great, 0.25 instead of a 0.1 cent per listen what a great payout.
Yeah, I’ll continue buying the CDs/individual songs (assuming they make it not too annoying)
And how much do you think the artist gets from the CD sale? Listen to it more than a handful of times, and it’s a lower payout than streaming.
