The strange bit is, even in the 80s,I was paying waaaay more than that per year for records and tapes.
It’s only the fact that someone suggested I had to pay them a subscription that causes me to download illegally
Don’t fucking tell me I need to keep paying every year for something I don’t own, I’m not buttoned up the back

Yah, I remember paying like $10-15 mid 1990s for a single CD album. And we liked it! Easily spent a few hundred bucks a year on music.
I swear if these stupid music labels just switched to 5 cents a song, no DRM, own it forever, global distribution, bill you once a month to manage transaction fees – they’d make more money than god.
