      I have heard about certain creators disliking Bandcamp and wanting to not use it anymore, but I don’t know why that is.

        I mean, I’ve heard criticisms about literally every form of digital musical storefront… I don’t know what criticism there would be for Bandcamp that Spotify doesn’t do worse for musicians. Music availability notwithstanding.

        On Wikipedia it says Epic Games bought them in 2022, then in 2023 Songtradr bought Bandcamp off Epic. Songtradr then fired half of Bandcamp staff.

        Eh… they’re still doing Bandcamp Fridays this year where they take no commission. I just had a look and this year it’s:

        October 3rd
