Bandcamp might have been bought out by Epic Games, but the platform has given me magnitudes more money for my music than every other streaming platform combined.
Any artist I hear online that I like their music, if they dont have a BC page, I suggest they sort one out. What I like about them is that I can stream peoples music via the app but also download it so I actually 'own' the music. I also like buying physical releases from artists through there.
I've not sold music through there so I'm not au fait with their terms but I know its not as terrible as all the streaming sites.
For what it's worth, Epic Games sold Bandcamp to Songtradr in 2023. It's still an American company, and probably isn't meaningfully better than Epic, but at least they haven't totally tanked the platform yet either.
