Now, this could be useful - github.com/meeb/bandcam... . Automated downloads of @Bandcamp.com purchases - point it at your music folder, buy some music... it should appear. Shame that @Bandcamp.com haven't opened their API to avoid the initial session cookie setup.

@bandcamp.com take a stand against AI generated music. Is this pure branding and messaging? Is there a valid use of AI in music creation? www.reddit.com/r/BandCamp/c...
AI Generated Music on Bandcamp
[...] Today, in line with that goal, we’re articulating our policy on generative AI. We want musicians to keep making music, and for fans to have confidence that the music they find on Bandcamp was created by humans.

What do listening stats mean if you're consuming music passively? I think they make sense in an intentional listening context. @lizpelly nails it again (ignore the clickbait "AI" in the title, it's really not a lot to do with AI) www.theguardian.com/music/2025/d...

The streamer’s annual charts are just another version of the tech that’s alienating us from our inner lives. Hold on to your musical memories and reclaim ownership of your taste
