      How is that FOSS, does it come with the mastered version of all the songs in Ardour? Of course not.

              FOSS only applies to code, you can’t change the source of art. It’s art, you can either own it or just enjoy it (like when you go to museums). You can’t actually change it to the way you like it. You’d have to have and own the DAW’s working mastered project files to make it FOSS compatible. No one does that.

                While it’s not entirely “source” and it’s not common, a few albums have been released with stem files.

                Nine Inch Nails is notable for being progressive in this area.

                  Yeah, I know that NIN does release the stem files with their releases, but it’s just 1 or 2 bands worldwide, most don’t do that.

                    Still it is a thing though.

                    I was just making the point that conceptually “open source music” exists and has even been commercially released by notable artists.

        And you aren’t gonna carry around a Sony Discman while working out at the gym are you💀

        Don’t mind me here with my walkman and cassettes.

        But yes the lack of cassette decks and compact disc players in the wild has reached new heights unfortunately, hell they’re getting rid of AUX ports now, the absolute fucking cunts they are! My laptops don’t even have disk drives anymore, I had to get an external one.
