    I only stream so that I can find new music. I’m not savy to find out other means. I have the album copied personally I just thought it was weird it was off a streaming platform

      Yeah I get that, I’ve been there. Its quite comfortable to use Spotify to get recommendations based on your played music. But there has been a solution before Spotify has been a thing: Scrobbling (as popularised by Last.fm) your Music.

      Be it via last.fm and plugins to your music player or a different service like Listenbrainz all together.

      I concede though that this process is a bit more involved.

      And yes I agree with you, it’s weird.
