There is a ReVanced version of Spotify, for people who didn’t already know. Block ads and get premium features for free: revanced.app
(There’s also YT Music ReVanced)

I heard the ReVanced patching stopped working recently. Is that not the case anymore?
Psythik@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Not sure cause I use YT Music ReVanced instead for the larger music selection.

If you are going to steal music you may as well just steal music

I used that for the longest time, but lately it stops working several days after I update it. I’m glad though, as now I have Navidrome set up.

Can’t I just go with piracy
Psythik@lemmy.world 1 month ago
This is more convenient than piracy.

Having the files locally is more convenient though

How is having any song you want being one search away less convenient than having to curate and organize a music collection, and then go digging though folders to find the song you want?
Look, I’ve been collecting music since 1998 and even I admit that streaming is a lot more convenient. Only reason why I still collect music is because I am a DJ and don’t always have a reliable wifi or data connection at every gig. But even then I’ve culled the vast majority of 50k+ tunes down to about a 1000 of the best and most popular on the dance floor. Then swap songs in and out as needed. The modern era makes it easy to re-obtain a deleted track, and often in higher quality than I originally ripped it at (I use a spectrum analyzer on my collection to verify).
