    Music piracy’s still alive here and there. The torrents I usually find are massive FLAC files that have very little advantage over much smaller MP3s though. I might need to buy some really fancy gear to appreciate it maybe.

      Music piracy basically amounts to not using sponsored AI playlists
      Listening to the music you like instead of the music you are told to like
      that’s what music piracy has become today !

      Yeah, music piracy is kinda niche these days: mostly just people who want a local library and who have a modded iPod or similar. I use Soulseek to get flacs of the music I play on my radio show, just so I can be sure I’m offering the best possible quality.

      But to be honest, I straddle both camps. I have a modded iPod full of music, but I also have Apple Music mostly for convenience.
