Tl;dr — alternatives mentioned are

  1. piracy
  2. physical media

I think most readers would expect streaming alternatives, but apart from an aside about bandcamp — none.

That's fair. I hadn't noticed this is posted in vinyl, but now the article at least makes a little more sense.

Bandcamp/torrents -> Plex -> Plexamp is my go to. I try and buy as much music as I can (especially physical) but I'll grab a torrent once in a while.

Plexamp kicks ass, I am amazed at some of the radio station mixes it does. With electronic music I've had some incredible beat matched crossfades that blew my mind.

I've also gotten a few vinyls that came with a coffee to download a digital copy. Which I thought was just amazing.
