I've never seen an artist on Bandcamp that I actually recognize.

Telling anyone to "just Google it" is proof that you have no interest in a good faith discussion.

How on earth you could read what they wrote and say it's in bad faith means either A) you don't know what that term means or B) it's become so diluted and repeated that it's lost all meaning. Perhaps both idk.

Like come on. They gave 4 suggestions, you pretended it was 1, and you're also ignoring other means suggested prior.

You don't know what you're talking about.

Please elaborate. Because they're right, and you are wrong. And they reasoned in what way.

Just Google it.

You're just throwing a tantrum at this point

This is a great example of the rude way to use that phrase.

There's no other way. That's the point. 💡

Bandcamp is good for indie artists and if you want to discover new artists. I've found quite a few diamonds in the rough on there. A surprising amount of metal / punk artists sell via Bandcamp if you're into that.

How is 'just Google it" not a valid option? This is literally how you can find 99% of all problems about the internet especially for finding where to legally buy digital products within the first few websites. You know what is good for business when you're trying to sell a product? Making sure its one of the first few, if not the first choice the customer gets when looking at the default search engine.

Moving on from that I'm guessing getting in contact with the artist is not an option? Y'know the other 2 points?
