  Yes, I mostly buy from Qobuz and Bandcamp these days, and they’ve been solid so far. But I don’t trust keeping my files in the cloud (aka some else’s server), I buy DRM-free, keep copies locally, and keep them backed up.

  Exactly, it’s not news. If you buy DRM-encoded media you don’t own it. You are just leasing it on terms decided by the seller, which are subject to change at their whim.

  Buy DRM-free or physical media and make your own copy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft Edge could use a win⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, when I have used Edge it’s been absolutely fine. Probably better than Chrome. I’d likely be quite happy to use it most of the time if it wasn’t for the fact that Microsoft are so intent on forcing me to do so.

  I mostly use Vivaldi now which I think is by far the best of the Chromium-based browsers.
