This is a $1 dollar increase from what I was paying. But soon subscribers will be $15/month, then $20/month. I wonder how much of deezer's income actually goes to the artists.

It depends whether you enjoy the datahoarder experience or if you just want to listen. Also internet avaliability. My mobile data isnt even 320kbps sometimes so streaming isnt an option. I also don't want it all tied to someone else. I have a lot of music in my hoard that was pulled from streamers or wasn't on them to begin with.

This here, and honestly I would rather be prepared for the enshitification of streaming music because Capitalism will make it shitty everyone. Just like video streaming. Rarely if ever does a company say "That's enough money."
