Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

I'd recommend ripping MP3 tracks

This is how you end up with a library of very low quality tracks. YouTube's compression isn't great.

Yes, the artist gets nothing, but the more important thing is the services stealing from the artists don't get anything either.

Why do you feel that YouTube is different to those other services? Does YouTube pay more per view than Spotify pays per listen?
