In terms of cents per stream, Tidal definitely compansates the most at 4x more than Spotify and 10x more than Deezer. Plus if you VPN to Nigeria on account creation, it's only $4 a month. You can then use tidal-dl to download music and you can use *arr Scripts to download music using Lidarr.

Does this vpn trick really work? I tried it on some other things and it never worked. It takes the location from the credit card.

Yes, you only have to turn it on for account creation. Turn it off when inputting payment details.
