I grew up with hundreds of CDs, then mp3s, then the streaming services.
There is no easy way to find good music anymore. Every service is payola garbage and media managers pushing pop and rap to the front of EVERYTHING. Ive had apple, Spotify, Tidal, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, and SoundCloud.
It’s the same fuckin trash lists pushed to the front across all of them. They are not different at all from one another.
the only music i listen to anymore are DJ sets for exercising. As a music fan of 30+ years, it’s pretty much dead to me at this point. The effort needed to find quality stuff is no longer worth the tiny output I receive.
YouTube is the best discovery tool I have found. Lots of smaller and indie artists still jamming real music, and once you "like" some songs it keeps recommending similar tracks.
