I knew it was bad, but I didn’t realize it was that bad. Anyone know what the best way to buy music is that benefits the artist the most? I know concerts are the most profitable, but I can’t easily go to concerts these days because I have young kids.

I think the best for the artist is buying physical copies from their own homepage. Probably followed by Bandcamp
