Create a new email using a VPN (exit lag works too) buy a giftcard or prepaid foreing visa rechargable card for that country but Giftcard is the way Create an spotify account and paid premium using that.
i did this long time with YT (india) Spotify canada (got a good deal) and Crunchy roll Turkey
Spotify is a garbage company that profits from and platforms anti-science and sewing division.
There's many pod casts on Spotify I don't like. I don't attack Spotify. I just don't listen to them.

If you're on Android, try InnerTune via FDroid. No subscription required, easy to find music. It has reasonable recommendations for music, but not the same standards as Spotify. If you buy a DAP and microSD card, or a mobile phone that takesmicrSD cards. After that, just download any and all music you like and play anytime, anywhere without neededing a data connection.
You sir, are a legend. Never heard of InnerTune before but im playing around with it right now. I could see myself using this more than my local library. Thank you for sharing
Thanks really to the chap who similarly brought it to my attention. I use it in the car and at work.
Purchase a $200 DAP + $25 SD card and some IEMs and carry all of your music offline
Fun story. I never really considered myself an audiophile. At first, I downloaded every song I had as an mp3 or YouTube rip.
Then I ran out of storage space and built a music server.
Then I discovered deemix. At the time completely free
I know deemix wouldn't last. I redownloaded every song I had as flac, knowing I can't Begin to take advantage of it. Storage is cheap and I have unlimited data.
So a dap is in my future. Probably in my car. And after some research
Take a look at Hiby for the less expensive DAPs. You'll find plenty of IEMs to run off of it in whichever category of price you're looking in
can you be more specific
Download your music offline and use better hardware rather than wasting money on subscriptions
He says, pirate the music and invest in good listening hardware.
that's even less specific
DAP - Digital Audio Player - a dedicated device for playing music. Usually will offer higher quality playback then a phone.
SD Card - Secure Digital Card - A common standard for removable flash storage
IEM - In Ear Monitors - A type of headphones
OP is saying to buy this stuff and have your music downloaded as normal files on the SD card.
lol
Use Spotube. It's free and basically like premium Spotify.
I am currently using Spotify + Spicetify with Marketplace.
I'm gonna try this out. Seems like a cleaner approach.
Subscription lol is someone going to tell him?
I want to listen at work, and paying $20 a year is worth not having to get something potentially malicious
VPS running wireguard server with hardened kernel and fail2ban and an optional GeoIP blocker/full-fledged WAF. SELinux is optional.
Connect both your mobile/portable device and a segment of your home network to the same interface if you're using Wireguard, but there are ways to do it with SSL VPNs too, I'm sure. You can now stream all of your media, self-hosted, no restrictions other than outgoing bandwidth costs on the VPS.
It'll take a weekend but this is not too hard TBH. Use IaC for even faster deployments.
I'm not sure why people think this is a realistic option for most anyone. No way anyone with no experience doing any of that is setting it up in a weekend.
Not to mention it is hard to do that with music and keep up with thousands of new tracks and artists.
X-Manager for Android works well.
Plex is malicious to you?
I dont know if is allowed share piracy, but search for something like x manager app on duckduckgo / google
My friend, we are in a piracy community what else would we do here if it is not... Share knowledge.
Yeah, this is my current solution. I was hoping I could do cheap enough to just get legal
IDK why'd you even bother with legal, it's easy enough to rip mp3s out of any youtube video.
these are in my ~/.zshrc:
# download any video as mp3
# if video is chaptered, split each chapter into separate song files
alias yt-mp3='yt-dlp --extract-audio --audio-format mp3 --split-chapters --no-check-certificate'
Don't get me wrong, and I even think I shouldn't get involved on this, but it's a bit of a waste to pay for Spotify. imo, it's a company that doesn't deserve our money, since they dont care about musicians art and pay very poorly to them. If you want something to listen offline, I recommend Tidal. In the x manager app you have this option with a modified version
Look up: GitHub -> SpotX-Official/SpotX
That's my secret 😉
any benefits of this over Spicetify? does SpotX also support theming?
No idea, that's just what I use. .
