This question comes from a cave-dweller in terms of such services.
What is the current go-to for paid, authorised downloads of music? Where the track is not encrypted, where you can copy it to an SD card or old phone used as storage, where access does not expire after a time? Equally important, being a site that does not invade privacy à la Faceache. |

If you not into big downloads and looking for the odd songs & music I use this little gem of a program" MP3jam" works for me without paying a cent.
It primarily searches you tube music downloads Give it a try. https://www.mp3jam.org/ |

I’m not quite sure yet how much stuff I’m looking for. It’s mainly to amuse others over longer drives without repetition. Probably less than 40 hours total playing time.
Have read about freeware and subscription programs that convert Apple’s format into MP3, but some of the guff might be out of date or the sites/apps too dodgy. Didn’t really want to go the pirate route, I regard artists as tradespeople too - and we (trades) complain if someone rips us off. How easy is it to rip MP3s off Spotify? |

I usually use Mp3va. Not free but not expensive.

Risk of confusing “So What’Cha Want” with “Wannabe”?
