Thoughts on apple music compared to spotify/tidal?
>>127776450Wasted opportunity
>>127776450I prefer Soulseek and Foobar because I’m not a casual
>>127776466>Soulseekbrown man's RED
>>127776466Based. Owning your music is far better than streaming.I quit Apple Music after trying to use the desktop app on my windows PC and it kept lagging. Even when I turned off lossless streaming it'd either fail to start playing a song, or over time the app would get exponentially slower until I had to do a hard reset of my PC.Foobar is far better than streaming anyways. Open source, editable lyrics, easy tag sanitation, you can have any or all releases of an album/ep (Domestic, international, deluxe, etc).Piracy for tv and movies is already at a record high, even compared to when it was popular before the streaming wars. Hopefully music follows suit and all the normies get a little more hipster in them with slsk and foobar.
>>127776450The automix thing they added is a really nice touch. In combination with local files, it’s by far the best music platform.
>>127776450Better than spotify but i wish the apps weren't horseshit
>>127776517The normies flooding the gates puts piracy at a greater risk of getting smashed by the law. than ever before, because TPTB now have a larger reach with the help of A.I. There already are talks of Google permanently banning the ability to sideload apps to Android next year. Repositories don't seem to stay up for as long as they used to. Z-lib and Libgen got critical hits because of retarded teenagers openly calling for pirating their favorite YA smut novels on tiktok. Some yuros already have gotten into legal troubles because they were caught, or rather snitched on themselves, because of IPTV. Hell, even the Internet Archive got a massive blow last year.>But I'm the P2P/private tracker poweruser putting everything on his own serversI know. I'm just saying that it gets the kind of attention that would halt progress instead of bringing about a utopian reality, because then everybody would be directly fucking with the big corpos' money, and that's the big no-no. And I like convenience.

I just hate how streaming has made music a commodity. Nobody I know treats it seriously anymore.
this is a youtube music board
Can anybody actually hear the lossless codec through bluetooth anyways?
>>127781053nope. neither can you hear the difference on ~90% of the crappy headphones or speakers that most streaming users have. the difference between lossless and high-bitrate lossy is very small, is easily masked by things like bluetooth or noise cancelling, needs good ears and playback equipment to detect in the first place and is not audible on all recordings anyway.
