Good to know! Legal, non-DRM?
Do they have popular artists?Completely legal and non-DRM yes. You buy digital albums and can choose what type of files you download. (MP3, FLAC, WAV, ALAC, AIFF, and more). Artists can even offer a license for a choose-your-own-amount donation.
I'm not too sure about popular artists, but they do have a lot of great indie artists. A lot of small bands use it, as well as a lot of music producers from smaller subgenres. (Darkpsy for example)

LLM everything. Nobody who is selling AI services is making any money on it. OpenAI is burning tens of billions a year without even a concept of a sellable product, Microsoft is losing billions on OpenAI, and Amazon made 5B revenue on a 120B investment (and negative profit). Nobody who is using these LLMs is paying the full cost, and hardly anyone actually uses them for anything real. Productivity hasn't gone up for the vast majority of companies using it, and only ignorant management is pushing it hard.
I'll give it three years until it all falls apart, and that's very generous.
Thats assuming that future iterations of the models cost as much as the current models do to run.

I came here to say exactly this. Well done.

Not at all. It's assuming they don't suddenly drop in cost 99%

Original question by @[email protected]
It goes without saying, DVDs/BlueRays.
I doubt DVD or Blurays are going away that soon, I could even see it making a comeback as people figure out that it is an objectively better product

Waiting for blurays to just come with an activation code like a lot of PC game copies do already

It's objectively worse from a profit standpoint, so I can definitely see them disappearing outside of secondhand sales
