Ones that don't have EVERYTHING.

It's more like 75:25 ratio for me aren't I so cool and obscure.

I don't care if it's childish. There's enough music on Spotify to last me a lifetime. I don't need to **** around with dickhead bands (or labels) that make it harder for me listen to their music. I'm not downloading files or what the **** ever. One extra click can suck my dick. I want it how I want it.

I googled boycotting bands not on Spotify and all I got was **** about bands boycotting Spotify. **** those bands. Spotify is the medium. Get on it or get ****ed. I'm not boycotting Spotify I'm boycotting you. I don't care if it's LEO Records, Matador, THE Unsane. Negativland for not having Escape from Noise or whoever. Spotify or lick my asscrack bitches.

It's different if it's a band on Bandcamp that can't afford to get on Spotify. But I've had it on Bandcamp like unlimited plays if you pay. Bitch I ain't paying for no ****ing Bandcamp. Be for real.

Might have been someone else unless it was from our best of 2016 PMs.

This thread is really ****ing Petty. I mean, yes, it's annoying they refuse to get in spotify when all it does is help you get known in landspace where people don't buy your **** if they don't know you enough, but to boycott the band for it, especially when its likely their label who decides it and very little bands do this?

Today I got annoyed the most famous frodus album was n't on spotify. So I just went to shelby cincas bandcamp. And there it was for free download. See? It's not the guy behind the music who thought it shouldn't be on Spotify.
