If you didn't care about downvotes, you wouldn't have responded to your own post to complain about downvotes twice. It's also possible that some people who disagree with you are not ignorant and they're not suppressing d

Don't use services with a "name" and multiple trucks that have a bunch of employees doing work under their umbrella along with a staffed office. Search for independent contractors who do their own work. And don't do what

Not to mention all the basement "remixers" who use audacity or whatever to "improve" the sound before they stream it, or max the volume to the point of constant red-lining, nevermind downgrading it to mp3 instead of usin
