    Most of my music is “pirated” because you can’t find it on any streaming platform, it’s usually a YT download, often for game OSTs (often ones I own a copy of), and offline play allows stuff like Music Speed Changer to change the pitch and speed of the music!

      Ahh remember the good ol times when you could insert a jrpg cd into a cd player and could listen to all the music.

      I see more often than I’d like to see retconned and greyed out releases in my playlist…
      The fuck am I paying them.
      God do I hate those publisher licensing agreements.

      If it was just for game OSTs and other less common music. Over time I noticed that my playlists on streaming services start losing songs, mainstream music. Sometimes this is because an artist leaves one label for another, but sometimes I have no explanation. And I don’t even notice that until “hey, I haven’t heard that song in years… wait, where is it? where are these albums??” It’s frustrating. This pushed me to pirate music again.
