    Bandcamp is US owned, but still worth mentioning I think because of their commitment to high revenue sharing, about 80-82% goes directly to the artists. They have custom playlists, and offer high quality formats as well.

    If the goal is a quality product and an ethical approach to supporting artists I’m not dead set on only using European alternatives

      They also have Bandcamp Fridays, where 100% of the revenues go to the artist. Personally I always wait till those days to buy music on there

        May be worth mentioning that it’s not every Friday that this happens. I was under the impression that it was, and would have accidentally made a purchase on a random Friday if I had not looked further into it because I wanted to check which time zone was used for the cutoff.

        The remaining 2025 dates:

        • May 2nd
        • August 1st
        • September 5th
        • October 3rd
        • December 5th
