Is there a place to buy mp3s of albums that I can download...

[DATA EXPUNGED]

@darius I generally buy non-BandCamp music from iTunes. AAC is pretty widely-supported, and Apple is arguably less evil than Amazon.

this, also, i'm using windows, so not itunes. google music is still a thing, but it won't be for long - it's going to be assimilated into youtube. 😬

@darius @dajbelshaw I've been using Google Play Music, but they're closing it an it doesnt seem that Youtube Music lets you buy tracks to download :(

@darius The only non-GAFAM alternative I know about is 7digital, but I'm getting tired of only being able to point to them, and I'd be happy to learn about other viable options. There have to be others somewhere out there...?

@darius I'm not sure about the "wider selection than bandcamp" part but emusic dot com might be something to look into

@darius something I also done a few times lately is to order the CD from the label & torrent the MP3. While I rarely open/rip the CD these days after it arrives (and not a fan of the resource use of CD production+shipping) this gives me the peace of mind that I'm supporting the artist. 💖
