Bandcamp was sold off, no point using them going forward.
The site is still the same, you still get your music to download, the band still gets most of the money. 100% still a point in using them.
Dude Bandcamp had been sold twice and the product has not changed from a user experience and I only use Bandcamp at this point...I will say you NEED to download anything you buy to archive your collection but at the moment Bandcamp still pays bands, still allows unlimited streaming and still amazing.
Do I expect it to remain amazing...nope, but for now it's still amazing.
For now, they still provide DRM free downloads in FLAC. And they still pay the artists on the Fridays. I'll continue using it till they inevitably fuck it up.
