I have ~100 users downloaded ~1000 of my files in the last week alone. Music piracy is still alive and kicking. I encourage everyone to download and install SoulseekQT/Nicotine+/Seeker-Android and share whatever kind of music you have for everybody to download. Let’s bring back music piracy!

    The thing is, you barely support the artists you’re listening to when you use spotify.

      I don’t want to be a dick but you just posted that we should pirate music more which for some reason supports the artists more…?

        I’m not advocating piracy as a way to support artists, but a way to fight against the big corps/streaming platforms/the system that just take the majority of revenue for themselves while hurting both the consumers and the creators. As I replied to other comments, I try to look for ways to directly support artists individually whenever I can.

      There’s no way to directly support artists unless you’re buying merch from their specific site or at a concert
