Example: Mine is Pandora, but I’ve used Jango for more independent artists as well.

    bandcamp.

    • drm free copies of the music to keep forever
      • I’m building a library of music I can keep forever, even if I stop using the service. Some months I don’t pay anything because I’m happily listening to what I already have. I’m not stuck paying a subscription
    • musicians get a good cut
    • their blog posts about genres and cities and stuff are good, and are (or feel like they are) written by an actual person.
    • Sometimes musicians do “listening parties” where you just hang out in a livestream with the band
    • when you buy stuff, you can write a message to the band and sometimes they write back

    Now, if nothing you listen to is on bandcamp it won’t be as appealing. But there’s a wide variety of genres.
