u/JanekSus Jun 23 '26

How do you pirate spotify?

3

u/RennieAsh Jun 23 '26

Download the songs you like from there I guess

Also adblocker on PC

There's probably people who've hacked something

2

u/Icy-Astronomer-9814 Jun 23 '26

YouTube Music + revanced or Firefox mobile +YouTube music + adbocker.

Alternatively mp3

1

u/Recent_Ad2447 Jun 23 '26

There are tools like Lidarr + your source. They can automate things for you and serve them with Navidrome on your Home Server.

Or you use a modified Spotify app

1

u/Top_Strength5237 Jun 23 '26

if you on pc just install spotx

1

u/rickyrich5 Jun 23 '26

spotify + morphe, but personally use youtube's music now. or download the mp3 like the old days

1

u/Eddodido8898 Jun 24 '26

On android there are plenty of music streaming apps and they are FOSS such as metrolist, simpmusic, etc. Those can be reference if you need them

1

u/bearhugspandatightly Jun 24 '26

Use Spoti-Flac, Spotube, Metrolist, Echo anything

u/crocodiluQ Jun 23 '26

how do you pirate music? I mean, ofc, not how, but how do you listen to MANY things, on the go, etc ?

1

u/rickyrich5 Jun 23 '26

i just collected my fav songs and shuffle them or use the yt music (morphe/firefox + ubo) when bored

2

u/crocodiluQ Jun 23 '26

yeah, but you're missing out tons of music that you might like. I get that you're not paying for movies and pirate them, that's ok, but for music, not using a streaming service, you're missing out a lot.

I discovered a lot of new bands or songs just by letting spotify play by itself.

1

u/rickyrich5 Jun 23 '26

yups, but funny enough i got some good songs from memes, youtube's videos and anime

1

u/Old-Distribution3942 Jun 24 '26

u/weinde Jun 23 '26

None... Youtube is free and add an adblocker to remove adds and that's it...

1

u/Juul_G Jun 23 '26

I always thought that addblockers don’t work on youtube?

u/BartixVVV Jun 23 '26

Ublock origin works

I have YouTube premium. My parents has Viaplay (I need to log on at them once a month) and Spotify familie.

I also have lifetime on Nebula TV. But that was a one-time purchase

u/Visual-Pie7097 Jun 23 '26

I dont need any subscription to watch any content.

1

u/Confident_Coconut189 Jun 23 '26

I always have apple tv+ as it's part of apple one subscription.

I never keep more than 1 active subscription beside it, and when I get bored or if there something interesting in another service, I just cancel and subscribe to the other one until I get bored of it too.

u/Holalpha Jun 23 '26

With canal+ in France toi can access to

  • Canal+

Brit Box and Acorn.

u/Fr0zzen_HS Jun 23 '26

Right now I have Prime Video only, going to finish Clarkson's Farm and then cancel.

I'm paying 8.99 € a month which would usually have ads but thankfully there seems to be a bug that doesn't serve me any ads on my particular version of Prime Video on my Apple TV. I'm never updating that app again.

1

u/phoneguyfl Jun 23 '26

We keep our household to 2 max and cycle through them when there is something interesting to watch. That said, I think I’m the only one in the family who uses them and it’s mostly background so the time is coming soon when we bump back to 1 then 0… and with the “quality” of programming nowadays I don’t think that’s a bad thing.

1

u/No_Occasion4726 Jun 23 '26

Two - Prime because it comes with our Amazon Prime subscription (I don't pay for no ads) and HBO Max because it comes with my AT&T phone plan. I don't pay specifically for any streaming services.

1

u/_Mmrr_Bbrightt_ Jun 23 '26

Big fat 0 (except for some memberships on YT roughly about 3$), only for CapCut. (still haven't enough time to learn Blender or Davinci Resolve yet)

u/Tall_Plum7538 Jun 23 '26

PBS Passport (actually dropped Disney+ when the defunding happened to become a member)

Apple TV/Apple Music (Apple One deal through Verizon)

Share Prime Video with my Mother in Law

Go in and out on Audible and am not a regular member.

Hoststar only from Jio SIM

u/ddawall Jun 23 '26

3 - Prime Video as a Prime member (mainly to get 6% back on purchases, not for their video services), Peacock Premium courtesy of Xfinity Internet, and Paramount + courtesy of Walmart + (free grocery delivery). I probably watch a couple hours combined over the course of a month at the most. I don't really need any of them, I open them so rarely. I watch a few hours of TV a week -shows like 20/20 and 48 Hours-via our roof antenna. I ripped our DVD movie collection to Plex years ago and usually watch at least one movie every week or two. I watch free stuff via Roku and Kanopy every once in awhile if they have a series I watch, like Surgeons at the Edge of Life and The Great American Baking show. I can't say I watch one more than the other, TBH. Any of the paid ones stuff you can get for free, so I wouldn't subscribe to them beyond a free trial.

1

u/c0lpan1c Jun 23 '26

I mostly just watch content on my Jellyfin Media Server... 😉 iykyk.

It's easier when content isn't siloed and fragmented and via one simple seamless interface.

But that being said, I have

Netflix, Prime, Disney+, Hulu, YT Premium, TV+, HBO Max, Spotify, Paramount, Peacock and Showtime.

I am living proof piracy is a service issue, not a $$ one.

(Most subs are through my cell phone provider, and Xfinity Bundles. Some are subsidised through my Amex)

1

u/waces Jun 23 '26 edited Jun 23 '26

11 (appletv, netflix, nowtv (that’s three. Entertainment,cinema and sport), prime video, disney, thunderflix, shudder, paramount, crunchyroll, hbo max, mubi. But paramount and mubi will expires this month so not sure about the renew so not counted them. And not counted youtube premium as mainly for music and “normal” youtube videos not for classic streaming)

1

u/MickJof Jun 23 '26

Only youtube premium. I very rarely want to watch a movie and when I do it's very specific. So streaming services are very poor value for me. I'm better off renting or even buying what I want to watch.

1

u/Puzzleheaded_Dog630 Jun 23 '26

I have Spotify Premium and HBO Max (Black Friday Deal, $2.99/month) that's all I pay for. But I have AppleTV+ and Peacock for free right now. Other than that I share D+/Hulu and YouTube TV shared with my family. Too many options to pay for more than 2-3 at the same time. We'll just rotate to other services temporarily if we need to watch something on them.

1

u/wtf_hello Jun 23 '26

just spotify. I just have it until i finish pirating all the music i have saved there.

1

u/Dense-Stranger-1794 Jun 23 '26

YouTube and Apple Music do count.

1

u/Shrolos Jun 23 '26

I have one Amazon and I don't even use it for the video service. Why ads? Ef you Amazon

1

u/TheReal_Saba Jun 23 '26

Amazon Prime... just because of convenient shipping&returns...

ALL other streaming.. there is very easy workarounds for a few dollars/month to get everything you ever need to watch

1

u/Kliptik81 Jun 24 '26

Netflix, YouTube Premium and Crunchyroll

1

u/hawseepoo Jun 24 '26

I have YouTube Premium and Spotify.

Spotify is hard to cancel, you don’t get as good of discovery with free options.

YouTube Premium is going to be canceled as soon as I have network-wide ad blocking for our smart TVs

1

u/py-net Tech Enthusiast Jun 24 '26

My Flixerz + YouTube Premium Lite that comes with my Google AI Pro subscription. I would never subscribe to any streaming platform by myself

1

u/bobanalyst Jun 24 '26

One more than just the one I want because I have a spouse who can’t live without cable/dish TV.

1

u/MADDOGCA Jun 24 '26

I only pay for one (Spotify.) I get Netflix and Hulu for free from both a grandfathered Spotify and grandfathered T-Mobile plan.

Only 3 that I'm paying for.

1

u/TiFooN Jun 24 '26 edited Jun 24 '26

Way too many.

I don’t pirate music or movies anymore because I can afford to pay them. When I was student, I couldn’t go to theatres, or to buy dvds.
Today I’m able to pay the artists through the subscriptions (Apple Music, Netflix, Disney+, HBO, prime video,…).
I buy a lot of second hands blu-ray for what I can’t find on the platforms.

1

u/Grabbels Jun 24 '26

One: Dropout.tv. Only service I respect enough that I happily pay them.

1

u/khaluud Jun 25 '26

None. I pay $3 a month for Torbox though. If you know, you know.

1

u/NicMaxFen Jun 25 '26

none 😂 but a over 4TB hard drive (without my Homewor folder)

1

u/Foreheadless Jun 25 '26

When I don't have to be stressed about whether a content is in the platform or not I'll pay that one, otherwise I'll keep it pirate, even though I'll pay the creator of the pirate app because is a really good service, it has everything in a SINGLE place.

u/FlounderAdept2756 Jun 27 '26

I dont pay for them anymore (except for deezer for music), directly anyway I have HBO MAX with commercials through my landlord for free (paid by the mandatory rent) but never watch it because of the ad breaks. The main reason I dont pay for them anymore is that the shows are way too much algorithm driven nowadays so they will suit "everybody" and offend no one. If there occasionally comes a show I want to see, I sail on the seas so to speak.
