I find Bandcamp missing most of the artists I listen to. I’ve had a lot more success buying from Qobuz and beatport.
Comment on Spotify says its best developers haven't written a line of code since December, thanks to AI

I wouldn’t place too much trust in Bandcamp. It was acquired by Epic Games and then sold to Songtradr shortly after, it’s waiting to enshittify. It might also be better to buy off of labels and artists directly if you want to “support” an artists or a label. Used CDs and vinyls are great too.

Yeah I download the files right away. It creates something of an Odysseus Pact I think. The second they stop offering me the downloads DRM free, I download the files DRM free elsewhere.
