The Ugly Truth About Spotify Is Finally Revealed
(www.honest-broker.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Used CDs (or local library). Ripping software. Super easy. Or just buy from Amazon and download your files to local.
People sell whole collections or discographies on ebay too, I've had good luck with that. CD, then rip them. I don't give a flying fuck what law says if I own the media I'm going to rip it.
For music that I really like, for artists that I really appreciate, I do look for ways to support them, because buying used does not.
