So what can we do about it?

Well, I dunno! I can tell you what I'm trying.

I don't have streaming subscriptions (well, sort of. My household has two or three, but they're not *mine*) but I have the budget that I had previously allocated towards streaming services and every month I spend it on independent media.

For every streaming service my household subscribes to, we also allocate at least that much money towards paying artists directly.

It's not a ton of money, a few dozen dollars. It buys a couple of digital albums, a game or two, whatever.

But it's cash going directly to artists.

If more folks would do this, it would be a net good.
