Never used Spotify. I have my own methods of finding new music and once I have something I want to listen to I usually just type "[artist] [album] full album" on YouTube and if it's not there (which is very rare) it's usually on Bandcamp or SoundCloud. I do pay artists though, I buy their music if I enjoy it and always make sure to see them if they are in town, I think it's healthier than a subscription service model.
