When Neil Young asked us to switch to Tidal, I went along and loved that it paid the artists 10x more per stream.

But Tidal is American owned, spotify isn’t…

I’m struggling on this one, a lot of the lil punk bands I love could really use the revenue but, y’know, trade war etc.

Anyone have any thoughts to assuage a guilty conscience on this one?

    It’s not going to help for Neil Young but for smaller artists always check Bandcamp first.

    Edit: they are, of course, American, but so are many artists.

      But most of the money goes to the artist soooo… I guess swallow that pride and don’t buy from American artists 🤷‍♂️
