it's a good day to have most of my favorites from them on physical media already.

Time to bust out my vinyls!

They're really cheap compared to other artists as well.

The article suggests it's because the companies support Israel, which makes sense because GY!BE has openly supported Palestine

On a related note, does anyone know of a good way to listen to podcasts that doesn't use Spotify, apple or google?

You can subscribe to podcasts via RSS. I use AntennaPod on Android, but there are loads of other solutions. The whole point of podcasts is that you don't need to go through 'platforms'. Back in the day, the term for the client app was 'podcatcher' so that might be worth searching for on whatever os you're using.

Thank you! I don't really listen to much podcasts but this came up with some friends recently who were looking for alternatives, I will pass this along
