I would personally suggest Qobuz, as it is demonstrably the service that pays artists the most and has multiple tiers of lossless audio options. The next best thing would be to buy from artists directly, whenever possible (maybe even physical media, if you have a good sound system for that).

People here advocating for piracy sound cute, but I wonder how actual musicians would feel about that.

Can confirm: am over 35 and if I stay up later than that I start to get cranky and sour about kids these days with their insistence on trying, instead of doing or doing not. Ugh!

Never watched any of the movies, but the gory setting and gameplay look very intriguing.

Congrats on falling down the audiophile rabbit hole. Shortly, you’ll be receiving your complimentary gold-plated interconnects and a lifetime subscription of A/B’ing different masters without actually listening to the full album 🙃

I’ve started collecting 1:24 and 1:18 scale models of my favorite movie cars and I guess you could say my holy grail would be a 1:18 sized, 1985, Cumberland Grey, V8 Vantage Aston Martin, from 007’s The Living Daylights (and recently, No Time To Die). That and the 1:18 Chevy Nova from Death Proof, without breaking my bank account.

Oh well, time to fine the shit out of them and roll out Linux across the continent.

Isn’t this admitting to breaking EU law?

So, am I being an ignorant sack of crap, or is this not the State overreaching in matters of the private sector? Thought American conservatives hated such muddling.
