The idea is maybe we can find a way to make Spotify look as bad to listeners as it is to us, while asking them to go look for our music in places where we actually could get paid for it.

How?? We enshittify from the bottom up.

Sabotage! I think there are 3 ways.

1) Treat Spotify as a place for free samples. Only a track or two from each album is there, listeners can find the rest.

2) Only put music up for periods of time. That’s how they do it with movies and TV on streaming!

3) Just publish snippets of songs

I’ve thought about it and I think we should sabotage Spotify low-frequency.beehiiv.com/p/let-s-sabo...

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.

Tuning In Freq goes to college (radio). And Appalachia.

Spotify was archived by Anna's Archive 2 days ago. When the company starts filing lawsuits, remember this bit from the book "Spotify Teardown": Spotify *exists* because of bittorrent, and because it began ... *with an archive of pirated music*.

I see your cat is possessed by the Christmas spirit

there are metal ear wax removal loops you can grab. horrifying to think about actually using one in your ear canal, but it’s perfect for those little candle divots.

Woah thanks for the heads up

Hell yeah thank you!

Glad you dig! I played keys and synth.

Man… this was entirely the point of my old band in Chicago from like 2015 to 2018 but we never released anything. There are a couple things on YouTube youtu.be/mOIhwBaHgE0?...

absolutely cursed property. anything short of returning it to death by audio/285 kent/glasslands (or equivalent) will result in generations of karmic haunt to all future tenants & their parent corporations.

If it’s something you might be interested in down the line, there are ways I’d be happy to help. I’m currently attempting to do some stuff not exactly similar but proximal with non-commercial community radio

If I could be any cat I’d be my cat.

THANK you

Just chiming in here, I know cc fees make paying by the article a pretty bad deal for pubs, but I’d love to see places like Hydra offering a bundle where you pay for 10 articles at a time and use up a credit with each one you read. Bet plenty of those folks would convert to subscriptions too.

on the verge of being back in business

You can’t be doing stuff like that

And if I only could / I'd BCC God / I hope this finds Him well

Just sent a follow up to God
