binarytobisThem pulling out of Spotify was the last push I needed to switch to Tidal. The only downside for me is there was a spotify exclusive cover of Daisy by Wet Leg that you can’t get anywhere else.
Giz has all of their stuff on bandcamp for pay what you can
Wet leg is in there too

any recs for good mp3 players? hard to find an affordable good condition ipod classic nowadays
PSPs and DS/3DSs play them pretty well, plus you get style points for being “retro”.
As someone that owned both, please don’t use them for audio (at least the first gen PSP, don’t know about the revisions). The audio while there is very bad compared to even BT audio nowadays. DS was especially bad that I didn’t bother with it. They are fine for retro games (and native games) even today though.
The audio was bad even with headphones? I never personally noticed a quality difference using the trusty 3.5mm jack present on those devices from the original mp3 file that I was using.
It was pretty muddy but usable. I had a PSP hooked up to my car stereo via 3.5 jack on a custom dock that made it look really cool for a student on a budget back in the day (especially with the graphic the PSP could do while playing music), however whenever one of my friends would connect their iPod the difference in clarity was easy to tell.
I had basic after market speakers, with a very basic after market stereo (maybe ~$200 for both), nothing crazy but even in those you could tell. This was with a first gen PSP.
