  This is why I set up a Funkwhale home server

  There are other ways. I’ve only had problems with ReVanced Music once, and there was a fresh set of patches less than a day later.

    Still dependant on a service, on them (YT/YT Music and ReVanced) continuing, and YT not breaking clients.

      The post is about PAID subscription models, not being dependent on something.

  I just noticed yesterday, that existing subscribers can stay at the old price. There’s an option to switch to a “basic” plan, afaik you will lose access to audiobooks, but they only give 12h of those per month, for the 2 euros extra.

  When I was just a lad looking for my true vocation
  My father said “Now son, this choice deserves deliberation…
  Though you could be a doctor…

  …or perhaps a financier…

  My boy, why not consider a more challenging career!”

  Honestly, I’m surprised that streaming has gone on this long before we have such enshtification taking place.

  I’m basically down to just a single subscription now because the cost outweighs the ease of use and only keep my music streaming service because of work and I don’t want to be using self hosting on a company network.

  That reminds me I still need to export my spotify likes and migrate all that out

    Could you ELI5 how’s it work?

    What music is it streaming? Is it somehow piping into Spotify/Tidal/something and grabbing music from there? Or is it “my own MP3s from my own storage location somewhere”?

    Also: does it support Last FM scrobbling?

    • bigFab@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I think it streams youtube music. You can download tracks and make playlists. Also has live lyrics for most of the tracks.

      I recommend using it now. Next year google is gonna kill all apps outside play store.

  Back in the days we were paying 10$ for an album. Then Napster came.

  Now we pay 100$ for a concert.

  Try Metrolist maybe.

  • TheMinister@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    $10 an album? Before Napster there was literally a class action lawsuit against the music industry because albums were like $22

      I bought my first album in 1977 for $7, which is $37 in today’s money.

    Where were you buying CDs for $10?

    I was lucky if I found something I wanted under $20.

  people pay for music? Wow at least give you something for the money, although pricey. others like RS trying to justify thier price increase without substantial increase in content.

    Paying for music is worthwhile. Ditch Spotify. Embrace Bandcamp.

• yermaw@sh.itjust.works ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  Ive only ever bought 2 CDs in my life. Have never paid to download music and never will.

  Im (my wife is) paying for the convenience. The moment it feels too expensive im back to the high seas.

  I did hear WoW is fun again

  source

  • Vespair@lemmy.zip ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    The game is fun, but it’s now a solo game where you occasionally team up non-socially with strangers to knock out goals, rather than being the massively social game it once was. Unfortunately I think those days are over forever.

    Is it? Last time I tried I was having somewhat good fun until I got the stupidest mythic dungeon group that bullied the fuck out of me as healer and stopped again shortly after that. I liked that there was just so much to do but I’m still not sure I can really enjoy the game the same way I used to now my life is so different and don’t have as much time to give to it.

    • LustyArgonianMana@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      A friend of mine started playing again and said it was really good.

      You gotta find a good guild to dungeon crawl or raid with. My favorite thing was being raid lead during Mists and working with a big team. I did some competitive WoW back then, and even played with Asmongold, my character is in some of his old videos. Makes me pretty sad how he turned out.

  I still pay for a Pandora family subscription, because all 5 people in my house use it; but for me - I don’t like spending all the time organizing and listening to albums, so I pick a song I want - Pandora makes a mix of songs like it, and then I rip the “station” that Pandora builds for me into files.
