  • iTunes is DRM free, you can easily move the MP3 files to any device (even ones that have never had iCloud access).

    I don't buy physical as I would wear it out playing the only track I would want to listen to on the album (as often it's only 1-2 songs I am actually interested in.

  • I purchase music to get the highest quality possible, pay towards the artists I enjoy listening to & so I don't pay for streaming services such as Spotify as they are bad models especially when I don't want to listen to music one month.

  • Yeah sadly I can't easily take over these platforms that I'd love to keep alive without using an alt account.

    Also I love answering the comments, it get's hard to answer all of them if there's 100+ comments and some ask the same 2 questions I've answered a few times previously.

  • Some months I listen to no music at all, as other months it's not normally more than a few songs I listen to on repeat, obviously my playlists grow but not at 10 songs a month all year around. Also music streaming services are more closer to 14.99 in my country than 9.99

  • So there's certain games I've been playing but it seems like most are just not really active; Minecraft GTA Online Counter-Strike Satisfactory No Man's SkyAre just a few of the games I play but obviously I want to find more things than just gaming communities.

  • I know i've got a few songs that I've got over 10 listens to, and I think a good goal for each track might be 1 play per pence that I spent on it, so a £0.99 song would be 99 plays.

  • Yes that can be helpful if you are the one feeling you are overstaying, a good amount of the time people are really nice and honest about things so that's really helpful

  • I get what you mean it seems like a lot of people push back from LGBT based things these days and it sucks. As a pan, trans woman I love finding gay content, especially to do with topics I enjoy such as Gaming.

  • I personally avoid streaming services as I know some months I rather just listen to podcasts or just not listen to music at all. This is why I'm starting a digital library of songs that I purchase. But yeah I guess getting a song to less than 0.01 per play would be a good goal to see the value in the purchase.

  • That is fair enough, I purchase Digitally as it's cheaper (as not really interested in a full album) and the higher quality of music does help a bit as it means I can hear it on better quality kit and it still sounds amazing. Streaming isn't really a thing I enjoy as some months I may not want a new song or even want to listen to music, So i'm triyng to work out what amount of plays makes sense that you've 'got worth' out of it. I know it's a little subjective but I wonder how much 99p is worth

  • Sadly I don't use the instances these communities are apart of meaning I can't gain control / moderate them.

    I might see about just posting in these smaller groups as I would love to see them grow.

  • TBH that is a fair enough group that I can see why there's no posts in lol

  • So the reason I purchase songs digitally is a few reasons;

    1. Purchasing an album is really expensive
    2. Purchasing the album is stupid for me as I normally only like 1-2 songs on it.
    3. I'm really autistic and can't deal with going to an artists shows
    4. I don't like how Streaming services work taking money no matter how much I listen to the music
    5. Digital Media can be copied and saved
    6. I know I could just download the MP3 from YouTube but I like to pay something towards the work
  • Yeah I guess that could feel strange but wouldn't that be better than 0 posts at all? Like hey least they are trying to grow the community and making some sort of effort.

  • No Stupid Questions @lemmy.world

    When purchasing Music (£0.99 each) how many plays would you say made the purchase 'worth it'?

  • That's fair enough, I find when a community is empty I am less likely to even consider posting in it, compared to one that maybe has a single post from 6+ months ago.

    Even if you are squatting on a community I think it makes sense to try and make it look active by posting yourself.

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    What is up with people creating Communities and then not even posting a single post in them?

  • As an autistic person I feel like i'm over staying my welcome sometimes, the easiest way to confront me is be like "hey, great to see you but I have other stuff to do. We should do this again"

  • I’m pan so no need to:3

  • Thank you :3
