Alison WilderI totally love that streaming services provide exactly zero information about recordings now. It's such a nod to the fact that music is just a neverending stream of content. Like, who fucking cares who made it, or when? It's already over!

@alisynthesis The incredibly damning part to me is that it’s not even hard. They have the info, it’s just text, some of it’s already in the metadata.

I don't use spotify, but I read somewhere that they make extensive use of #ISRC codes.
#Bandcamp supports ISRC in metadata, if you have it in the upload.
It also supports the UNSYNCEDLYRICS tag, and if your songs are on Bandcamp with official lyrics, anyone who searches for your lyrics will be sent to the track page.
@dec23k @alisynthesis that’s all well and good but there’s no excuse for not having the equivalent of CD liner notes for releases in any of the services.
Bandcamp is the best since we can edit those info sections to our hearts’ content.

Yes, there should be enough useful (and verified) metadata everywhere else, to make Discodogs optional.
