Threatened to lose my music... (infosec.pub)

I already transferred to Qobuz, but feels weird that they threaten people leaving with losing their libraries.

This would suck for people who only wish to temporarily cancel.

Bummer was looking to move to them away from Spotify.

whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

if you are going to accept the pain of transitioning, why go from one abusive relationship to another???

I hear ya, currently my server is redlining capacity due to scope creep and being overdue to upgrade. I’m mainly wanting to get away from Spotify due to them ripping off artist, ai (music/artist), and shady funding/investments and having a presence on Apple already.

I figured it’d be a Band-Aid until I can self host and already transferred all my shit over to Apple Music from Spotify with a handy built in tool. Just annoying that the Band-Aid solution is shorter term than expected because of shit like this.

For what it's worth, I have been making occasional backups with Hezel. Now I just moved to Qobuz, which provides Sondiiz. I believe the latter can also be used for other services.

This comment reads like satire making fun of silly app names

It's completely inscrutable to me.

Neat, thanks for the tips, I’ll check them out!
