This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I buy my music track by track on iTunes, I have never got an ad when listening, nor do I have to keep paying for the privilege.

Big fan of Bandcamp here. I assume it's a fairly different set of artists, though.

Also big fan of using adblocked YouTube, and yt-dlp.

Bandcamp for indie artists, though I am starting to see more bigger artists there.

Many bigger artists sell digital albums direct on their websites. If not they sell a CD you can easily rip.

Otherwise I use 7 Digital, then HD Tracks.

That's the issue... I think it's at least 10 years ago the last time I had a way to read a CD... Times change...

USB CD Drives are like $10-15.

True, it shouldn't be too much effort to read a CD. Though fortunately all my music so far has properly reached the 2020s (i.e. no CD drive needed...)
