Not necessarily piracy, but I realise that it might be the only option.
I’m planning to get away from Spotify. Is there some good places to get music. I don’t mind paying for it. But I don’t want a subscription service. I just want to be able to give someone money in exchange for a product. And ideally a MP3 or something similar so I can use it offline and move the file between devices.

there’s Bandcamp if your favorite artists are on there, usually they allow download in exchange for money.
Bandcamp is nice because even if the album is $0 you can still add some money for the artist.
Similarly, many times albums will be pay what you can, so it can be nice spending $0 on an album.
