Hello there 👋
I am following the path of decreasing dependency on US products myself, and I was wondering if there is any real alternative for bandcamp? Meaning, the one that would be a proper marketplace for niche music creators, that would allow DRM-free downloads and streaming at the same time.
Bottom line: I do want to pay for music I like to support musicians, though I want to do it in a way that would allow me to listen to their work in a way I like the most.
Also worth noting bandcamp has something called “bandcamp Fridays” which they waive their share of revenue and pass it to the artists. Here is a post with the dates of 2025. If you do still want to buy from bandcamp and can wait for albums then set a reminder.
