Good news. Thanks! :)

Was excited when opening this thread, disappointed when Spotify was mentioned. I rather buy the full album than throwing a single penny to Spotify (which includes usage data by just using the free version).

Maxvorstadt: Spotify?

Music streaming client. Btw just noticed the irony: Promoting DRM plagued music in a forum dedicated to DRM free games while there's a DRM free alternative.

Nah, I stop complaining now, good for those who use Spotify. :)

You can't download it for free. Either buy it for 15 bucks via Bandcamp or listen to it for free on Bandcamp or Spotify.

Can you explain what that means and what's wrong with it?

I'm just not comfortable with using cloud-based services who collect tons of data and analyse media usage behaviour. But hey, I can't say I'm having a very strict policy here since I'm using few services which do the same (not for music though). But I'm trying to reduce my usage of such services step by step.

Spotify has other problems though which at least should be discussed in general:

Nice one!
Sadly every cloud sooner or later will leak or disappear, therefore I'm not in..

The person who wrote that apparently doesn't understand how Spotify works? Either you're paying a subscription or listening to adverts, either way you're paying Spotify so it's not exactly 'free'.

Thanks for the criticisms link. Sounds like a real problem for artists.

Anyway, I was interested in this because my main source of finding new music is now YouTube, and I figure it suffers from similar issues. Still, in the end artists I like get my money because I buy their albums. (Or at least their record label gets it...)

Thank you for bringing this up. While I am not going to create a Spotify account to listen to it for free, the Bandcamp alternative offers a nice look into his piano composition work. Even though only half of them can be heard, it's a nice sampler all the same. One of them, Jim Power (Stage 1) really stuck out to me, so I decided to listen to the OST on YouTube and I have no regrets. It just has that energy that I have not experienced in a long time, especially the melody in Stage 1, so thanks for helping me discover this nice tune!
