      You could hand pluck grains of rice out of a field or just steal a 25lb bag.

      Which would you prefer?

        In case of this, definitely the grains.

        Most of this rice is not worth stealing :D

      No.

      Not everything got torrented after music streamers came into prominence. (Though chances are pretty good you could rip an MP3 off Youtube for whatever you’re looking for.)

        Ripping Mp3s off YouTube Music Videos is without a doubt the worst method of piracy I’ve ever heard of.

          Nope. Install metube on your PC. Give it the link to your YouTube music playlist. It will download the playlist into your local “Music” folder in the background. Install syncthing and it will push your music folder to your backups and phone.

          To add new songs, simply save it on YouTube to your music playlist and it will be downloaded to your devices soon.

            I think they’re making a Pirates of the Caribbean joke.
