Epic Games bought Bandcamp. Bandcamp is where you buy music if you want the max amount to go to the artist, but have no ability to make playlists. The site's UI sucks, because they money goes elsewhere. Epic Games is a platform known for having massive amounts of money and doing big moves with having platform exclusives. A lot of gamers hate them, but have had to join to keep playing the same franchises they have for years. This could be a big move against Spotify.

On one hand, breaking up Spotify's hold on the market is good. On the other hand, Epic is known for big moves that are... sometimes popular and sometimes horrible. I have a lot of music over there, all my The Midnight albums, etc. So I am a bit alarmed by this. Bandcamp allows people to DL the music they buy, and over the next week I will download every purchase.
