How dare you become untrackable and ruin our data collection

[-] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 27 points 9 months ago

Isn't qobuz like $5/month or something? How do you pay for something and they ban you because they can't track you further? Complete idiocy.

[-] Antaeus@lemmy.world 17 points 9 months ago

They have to. The license is different from region to region. It sucks, but it is how streaming services can survive until we get global agreements

For what it's worth, I haven't had any issues with Proton VPN and Tidal

[-] pedestrian@links.hackliberty.org 3 points 9 months ago

I also have no problems with Qobuz and proton vpn

[-] MigratingtoLemmy@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

This is nasty.

With that said, I personally think that Qobuz is better than the likes of Tidal, simply because they pay the artist more.

Just my opinion. But do what suits you. I usually just look from recommendations from YouTube and rip from Qobuz/Tidal/Apple anyway

Try proton they are legit good

[-] LWD@lemm.ee 3 points 9 months ago

I see a lot of alternative recommendations here, but there's a little bit of a problem with that: it's really easy for a company to get a list of VPN IP addresses to ban. They could do it on their own to some success, but I bet there are lists online that are being shared around already.

Don't have any issues with qobuz and mullvad

[-] Gazumi@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

I disconnected temporarily, signed in and then restarted my VPN. I did that connected to a safe cafe wifi. Works well straight after that. If they try it again or block VPN use again, will switch

Hahahahahhah

Can't your VPN use split-tunneling?

[-] iopq@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

If it blocks the data center blocks, then you can block 99% of VPNs

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

What do you mean "If it blocks the data center blocks"? Are you talking about IP blocks? Most VPN don't block anything, they just act as a proxy.

[-] iopq@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago

Qobuz can block any connection coming from AWS, Google, etc
