For some people music is a hobby — looking for new stuff, buying and sorting it is their passion.
The worst thing you could do to me is tell me that I pay $5 a month and the rest of my musical journey is solved and gets decided by a corporate algorithm that pays emerging musicians and niche artists a starving wage.
To me Bandcamp has been the best thing since sliced bread - direct connection with artists/labels, high quality audio (in a dozen formats) and often the chance to buy physical media (I'm a vinyl person).
Digital crate digging is one of my hobbies!
