More than on tour, definitely. Will watch this Summers festivals and check the ratio.

Tbf thinking about it I think it's dependant on the artists themselves plus the majority of bands with a fair few hits would be doing the subs/headliner slots so their sets would just be what they were doing in their arena/stadium shows
 
This (although I'm an Apple Music user). Streaming services have helped me discover so much music I would never have really had as much access to previously.

Last month, for example, Laura Veirs (one of my favourite female musicians) announced she was releasing an album with Neko Case (who I'd never heard of) and KD Lang (who I don't particularly like). The teaser track was good so I googled Neko Case, downloaded the "Intro to Neko Case" Apple Music playlist and liked it. Within a week I was familiar with most of her back catalogue and now I would say she's probably another favourite of mine!

A fave artist who you've basically not gave a penny to. #noshame
 
Why? What do you get extra other than being a proper music fan.

I'm happy being classified as not a proper music fan.

I get to actually own a record and give a but back to music.

I'm starting to realise there is a correlation between those who aren't proper music fans and those who don't like to spend their money.
 
Spotify is ok for when you are out and about/on the move, but in the house cd and/or vinyl is always preferable.

Vinyl in particular has made a very strong comeback in recent years and I read somewhere that vinyl sales actually eclipsed cd sales.

Analog vinyl sound quality is superb and first choice for many the discerning audiophile and head and shoulders ahead of crunched MP3 files tbh.

I am happy to be a plastic music fan and the music industry has had enough out of me to last a lifetime. Thanks for donating to artists and allowing me to pop along to the odd gig and not have to pay too much.
