Remember when literally nobody paid for music. I used Kazza until it made my Gateway computer blow up and I started using Limewire. These programs were fine when it was the shared family desktop computer but when I got my own laptop I still found a way to get free songs for my iPod touch or maybe I had a basic android by then.
I would convert youtube videos to mp3 then put them into itunes.
Now, oh how the turntables.
My bf torrents all movies and tv shows that aren't on the streaming services we already have, but as for music, I just bit the damn bullet and paid for premium in amazon music. Not only are people not downloading the individual songs for free anymore but because the free versions of these streaming services are so awful that anyone who doesn't want to be mildly infuriated will just pay to use the premium.
Damn if they didn't get us in the end. Remember when all those millionaire celebrities were crying and bitching about not being as rich as they could be, I remember a PSA being made about it. P S A Public Service Announcement. Playing a little fast and loose using the words 'public service' aren't you Lars from Metallica.
Back then I thought, there's no way people will stop downloading individual songs for free. I never would have predicted the entire platform on where/how music is being played would change.
Limited skips = pure evil genius. Overall streaming has made listening to music a lot less work. I also used to be annoyed that Limewire would provide an incorrect song title, mainly because the retards of the world would all start to call it by the incorrect title. Seriously, like no effort went into that.
Did any of you guys predict something like this? I really find it fascinating that in a span of a decade the main method people used to use to listen to music changed entirely.
I feel if someone is still illegally downloading individual songs in 2021 then they're likely still checking in on their Myspace page, editing HTML on their Xanga, burning CDs to listen in the car, setting their ringtone on their pink Motorola Razor recordings from the radio.

Srsly. One can dream right?
That could totally happen! Would you prefer to sell them on a site like Etzy or IRL in a farmers market type setting? The riverwalk where we live sometimes has people who put up a tent and sell jedielry or pen sketches that they've done.
You might not be able to make a living solely off of this but I bet it would be satisfying to create something from scratch and it be good enough that another person is willing to give you money for it.

I feel like pissing from male genitalia would feel more satisfactory.
Lol, they have this thing called a "She-wee" ... seems like it would come in handy when going camping. When you're afflicted with a vagina you have dig a whole to pee in, throw the tp in there and then burry it.
That's a lot of work just to urinate.

They already have 500 Kyle's in the streets. Because they know acquittal is coming this week. Which means the white SJW's will burn shit in the name of black justice.

Oh you must not know, they have a black friend, so it's cool.

Well, my first reaction is that you are not serious but posting edgy stuff..but I couldn't live with myself if I didn't say something.
You should definitely not kill yourself. And Lanny made me Queen B Mod of all Niggas, it was a private ceremony due to COVID, I'm sure you understand. and I forbid you to kill yourself.
