Same here. I had my iTunes library meticulously organized. Finding mp3s, downloading them, importing them, then updating the metadata.

And now I just use Spotify lol

I still do all this shit. I'll never switch to those DRM infested subscription services bullshit

I just use a cracked version of Spotify ;)

What I hate most about spotify is that you can't block artists. It's always pushing stuff I don't like and I can't do anything to stop it

You absolutely can block artists

Does it require a paid sub? Because I never found a way with a free account

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, you can do it under artist profile

How/where? There's nothing on the site

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I don't know about the web player but on the mobile app you press the same three dots and select "Don't play this".

From MusicBrainz - it can identify the audio fingerprint of music and tag its Metadata appropriately. It never worked for me back in c. 2002 though because my pc was too slow to run the analysis - and I gave up.

My first smartphone had a faster clock speed than that beige XP tower.
