Ya know what stops piracy? A better service than what piracy provides.

It's funny how we see totally different effects there in regards to music, as all apps have almost all of the music. Spotify e.g. is so popular here that noone streams or downloads music illegally anymore. And you only need Spotify.

The solution is simple. Cave to the labels in power and be ruthless to anyone else. This way you can have the whole catalogue of music in your app while surviving economically. Until.. the enshitification becomes too strong again and we'll have a piracy revival. And then a new service pops up again, etc..

The circle of life of pop culture under capitalism.

nah local files with mp3s and sync it with preferred cloud services is the best

Depends on your usecase. I would never go back. Spotify has release radar etc. It's so much more convenient to find new music by your favourite artists or similar ones now.
