The reasons for dropping Spotify are obvious, however pretext of this guide is that Spotify doesn't give enough back to artists. So the solution is to pirate it? I mean yeah sure, but don't kid yourself with the pretext.

How about a guide on ripping owned CDs?

There's and endless supply of guides for ripping.

On Windows just use Exact Audio Copy - It can pull all the track info from multiple sources. I forget what I used on Linux.

Pirate, then donate directly to artists.
