I didn’t even know they sold them again :( I thought there was a chance that Epic would be a good steward, but now a random music licensing company?

Apparently the biggest in the world, but B2B …

Anyway, might as well mention the bandcamp collection downloader in case anyone needs all their FLACs.

edit: It’s done. 110 albums/EPs for 40.5 GB of FLACs, took around 20 minutes. In case anyone wants to peek into my library (mainly if you are into folk or extreme metal): My collection

I'm really surprised by the number of people who doesn't already have all their music locally

I mean before epic games purchased it. It simply sound natural to me to have local versions of your music no matter what

Yes, I also did so before :D The only thing I changed, was that now I downloaded the FLAC files instead of only ogg.
