I hate Spotify so much, but every other attempt I've made to move away failed.

I used tidal for a bit, but it seems to break frequently from any privacy tooling I would use. I know they give artist a better payout, but if you don't work with my privacy method, it's a non starter.

I just download or copy all the music/audio I want to have, and put that all on my phone. Then I listen to it anywhere, anytime.

500GB SDcard is <100$

How did you get for less than 100$?

I switched to Qobuz. Mainly for sound quality, but they also pay artists more than ten times as much and they have pretty neat long read articles and deep dives, which is a way more satisfying way to discover new stuff. It's pretty great.
