Im not a part of any dj pool but that’s a great way as well. For more popular music, I’ve found Amazon music is generally cheaper for whatever reason than iTunes and Beatport. Bandcamp also let’s you buy whole discographies usually at a discounted rate. So if you like a certain label, def consider subscribing. Some labels have yearly subscriptions too where you can get all their releases for a set price. That’s where I get nearly all my music these days.

That’s an awesome way to build your library with unique tunes. A lot of up and coming artists give away tracks/albums for free or it’s a name your price type of thing.

So stay away from converters like that.Īs far as getting music, I highly recommend bandcamp and SoundCloud. The quality is extremely noticeable if you play it through a modestly nice sound system. By the time you rip it you’re probably half that. Usually streaming services are 128 kbps playback.

When you buy an mp3 track you’re usually getting 320 kbps.
