That may be true for bigger artists on major labels, but for smaller independent bands it’s not always the case. I am a heavy user and fan of Bandcamp for listening to and purchasing music but I use Spotify for listening in the car and sharing playlists. I often find albums that are only available on either Spotify or Bandcamp but not both.

The ones that aren’t available on Spotify tend to be self-released but otherwise there isn’t much of a pattern. Albums not on Bandcamp, though, tend to be mediocre at best.

And that’s not even mentioning bands that are pulling their music from Spotify in protest…

Someone once told me “every setting you expose to your users is a decision you were too scared to make.”

Math pun… 6! = Factorial(6) = 720

I'm an experienced developer and manager, ideally looking for a small software company that needs someone to help grow and mentor a department of engineers.

I think you’re getting your 90s rock goddess Kims confused, though it would be cool to hear a Breeders/SY combination!

Another factor to consider is that BC makes files available to download in a variety of formats (MP3, FLAC, AAC, etc.) Presumably they're transcoding on the fly from a lossless format and not storing all those extra files...
