@asklemmy How do you listen to music / podcasts? At what places?

For me, I mostly listen on podcasts during my drive or commuting on the train, via bluebooth earphones even in my car.

When doing deep work such as #programming on the computer, I listened to music out loud (bluetooth speaker) in my home office.

I listen to podcasts when I go to work or walk my dog. I use Overcast as an app, and I think it's great.

I work with music for a living, and I have to say that I do not listen to a lot of music, especially because I need an optimal listening setup to fully appreciate it. Currently, I use Spotify, but I think I will cancel my annual subscription when it expires.

@bebboIsTalking Wonder why you planning to cancel Spotify, what will you replace it with?

I no longer like that kind of music consumption model. I've noticed that I prefer to listen to the same album multiple times, and I think the "all-you-can-eat" model is detrimental to the artists. I prefer to support the artists directly, if possible, through services like Bandcamp. If I urgently need to listen to a specific song, I can use YouTube or tolerate the advertisements.
