Either you use the free version where you can't download or do anything really or you pay to get basic feafures like downloads. With drm protection.
If i want a song, i just use a program called video downloader. Found it on flathub. (Don't know about windows version)
It just does 1 thing and it does that well. It downloads videos as mp3 files, no stupid drm copy protection. i then use them in any media player.
Isn't like every song on the planet is on youtube anways.
Simple easy. No proprietary spyware required

Also, as others have said, Spotify recommends stuff, and it is fairly good at it, (yes that means it is "spying" on me, but so does YT, but it has way less , erh, accuracy in what it suggests)
Rocket Science question solved.
Roxio bought Napster and tried to make everything right with paying royalties like a good company should but it didn't go too far until Best Buy bought it and rebranded it as Rhapsody.
But then, Napster was sold to virtual reality concerts company MelodyVR for $70 million. So, who TF cares about it now?
So, you would rather pirate your stuff instead of paying for it?
The stuff is already on youtube. No paywall or so
All i do is just download it to avoid google tracking and being able to listen to songs whenever i feel like it. No matter if i have a working internet connection or not
Other youtube alternatives like odysee allow you to download any videos even without a stupid premium membershit
And all in all.
Just ♥♥♥♥ big tech.
I mean considering how they're treating Joe Rogan, it's not like they'll exist much longer to begin with. He wins either way though, so there's that.
Yeah it's the same ♥♥♥♥ with Pandora and a handful of others - they insist upon being cancerous by inserting ads into everything and ergo pissing off everyone who doesn't like the carcinogenic nature of the ad-based internet. It's like how people got onto Youtube originally to get away from television, but are now getting onto other sites because of how Youtube is wanting to be just like television.
I kind of like Spotify. Having pretty much the entire music industry to legally listen to ad-free for $10 a month isn't a terrible deal in my opinion.
There's plenty of video game soundtracks on Spotify. Minecraft, Undertale, Deltarune 1 & 2, Hotline Miami 1 & 2, Persona 5, Yakuza, Payday 2, just off the top of my head.
Same thing with gaming. Games don't come in self-contained folders anymore. They are connected to bloated clients that need accounts and internet connections.
People want corporations to hold their hand through everything. Your music? Let big brother Google stream it for you. Your games? Let big brother Valve control when you can and can't play.
It's sad to see.
Thats also very important. It's scarry to see how much big tech spies on you on so many levels. Like if or when you pause a video or song, if you listen twice.
Amazon even pays book autors just by how much you've read them if you buy them digitally. You still pay full price. But the autors get less if you only read half of it.
Same for music on spotify.
Those tech firms collect every single bit of data they can get their hands possibly on.
They can't track you if you just listen to the songs locally from a mp3 file.
If you buy from Amazon, not even remotely true.
I can't remember offhand what Spotify uses as it's streaming bitrate, but it's usually around 128kbps with many streaming places. 192kbps is comparable to CD, and with streaming you can often get other loss on top due to compression algorithms and so on.
So even if Spotify uses 192, then it will still be worse than CD most likely.
However if you buy from Amazon, for example, they have a few different rates of MP3. I believe their lowest is 192 and they go up to around 448, iirc.
Also if you can buy FLAC from any of the download services it most certainly will piss all over anything Spotify can put out as FLAC is lossless.
I rarely buy digital downloads myself, as I prefer to get physical copies either on CD, SACD, BluRay audio or vinyl.
But in any case, I do audio engineering as well and whenever I mess around with my own mixes and recordings, I make sure I monitor the audio spectrum intensely, and I just do it for other music out of habit.
And for that reason I know for certain that I've yet to encounter any streaming come close.
