Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

“Not anymore Boy, because the technology has changed. Nobody buys records, nobody buys CDs, nobody buys cassettes anymore.”

“So we earn a little bit from Spotify, not too much, and also from endorsements and doing shows, that’s all,” pagpapatuloy niya.

I think it's for the best. Most albums are good for only 3 maybe 5 songs anyway and the rest are just filler that used to be difficult to skip (especially with cassette days).

I only buy full albums/EPs if I really love the artist, particularly indie OPM acts, to support them. But for the most part, I just make up a playlist with the songs I like.
