  AFAIK, yes, and they’re around the same ball park, I think cheaper on the individual plan, but a dollar more than Tidal on the Family Plan, IIRC. Nothing like trying them out.

  Right now, it’s Qobuz that pays the most, and they also sport lossless audio formats as well. Tidal’s still a good pick, as far as music streamers go, though.

  I would personally suggest Qobuz, as it is demonstrably the service that pays artists the most and has multiple tiers of lossless audio options. The next best thing would be to buy from artists directly, whenever possible (maybe even physical media, if you have a good sound system for that).

  People here advocating for piracy sound cute, but I wonder how actual musicians would feel about that.

  Never watched any of the movies, but the gory setting and gameplay look very intriguing.

  Oh well, time to fine the shit out of them and roll out Linux across the continent.

  Isn’t this admitting to breaking EU law?

  So, am I being an ignorant sack of crap, or is this not the State overreaching in matters of the private sector? Thought American conservatives hated such muddling.
