Bandcamp was by far the biggest threat to music streaming services like Spotify, Tidal, etc. Don't believe that any real competition exists between them. The people in charge see any source to actually download (i.e. own) media as a direct threat to their ability to control history. Damn shame to see it happen in real time.
