It's just the more businessy sites that are fucked like this. The first page of google and such. There's still a vast ecosystem of casual sites that are quite nice. You just gotta avoid the hell-gaze of Mammon.

Digital media can be copied infinitely for free. Thus delivering any benefit to infinite consumers. Thus multiplying that benefit infinitely. They want to choke that? May as well tell the wind to stop blowing.

It visually renders the sound-beats properly. That's important. To synesthese like that. So many visualizers don't. Have you seen the intro for ENTER THE VOID? A fine example. https://youtu.be/dL0lNGXoP8E?si=h878U0
