As a more unified and cohesive unit of their oeuvre that you feel could be successfull cuz you’ve downloaded all their stuff and enjoyed it in a unified way that you realize you would actually pay for and want to encourage with your dollar votes
“I would love to buy your album if you’d put one on Bandcamp!”
Whoa?! Thats crazy talk! /s
I don’t know how to persuade, but bandcamp would be a possible platform if they don’t want to get fleeced by the streaming platforms.
I love bandcamp as a consumer.
They let me listen a few times to a song, if I like it I purchase and own it for a dollar or two, and the artist gets most of that.
Comment “I would buy your CD if you made one.”
But then they have to make CDs.
Bandcamp really is the best option (until they inevitably enshittify.
By the time they realize that, they will have already recorded everything making uploading them online a simple process. :P
You don’t, let them do things the way they want.
Thanks for playing
TuneCore and CD Baby are popular distributors for independant publishing to streaming but I don’t think they’re the best.
Edit: Bandcamp is by and large the better option if being on major streamers (Spotify, apple music, deezer, tidal, etc. isn’t important.
