What its Wrapped campaign doesn’t say is that indie musicians and labels are treated terribly, and deserve a better deal, says Damon Krukowski

    It’s looking like Bandcamp is going to get axed: Bandcamp lays off half its staff after buyout by Songtradr

      Capitalism is a machine for producing tragedies.

      The only silver lining is even if Bandcamp goes away, I can keep the music I bought on it. It’s all drm free. If a streaming service shuts down, you’re typically left with nothing despite having paid every month.

      I hope Bandcamp survives, and somehow regains independence.
