Most of the music I listen to is from Bandcamp
I like it because I can directly support the artists and I get to show off my collection online, while still keeping my (easily redownloadable) mp3/flac collection offline
I do like Spotify (even have a Premium subscription), but it's often missing the artists I like and the program itself is pretty terrible compared to something like Foobar/AIMP/PowerAmp
In addition, having local music files opens up a whole world of new possibilities, like being able to add them to videos, having fun mixing/editing them and playing rhythm games like Audiosurf and Riff Racer

Also the discography option is so wonderful, it helps with the backlog if you dive into something new. I already got 2 or 3 labels to be there because there was no proper place to get their music :)
- rebane2001 7y agoI feel like Bandcamp is also more geared towards artists. When I discover new music on Bandcamp, I see the custom-designed artist pages and make a connection between the music and the artist while on Spotify and YouTube it feels more like going from song to song, but not focusing on artists separately (which is not necessarily a bad thing, but I personally prefer the former)
