Streaming is extremely hard to do yourself without the infrastructure to support hundreds, or thousands of people connecting to your server. It’s not realistic without the architecture and experience. And Twitch IS where the people hang out. Unfortunately.

Go to where the audiophiles are. There are plenty of headphones and IEMs (earbuds) under $50 (and even $25) that sound fantastic and sound better than $200 dollar options out there. My favs that I actually tried are the MOONDROP Chu 2 $23, Koss KSC75 $20, and the Sennheiser HD 600 (which I got on eBay for like $250). Check out the audiophile subreddit, there are plenty of people who have made ranking lists.

I literally thought you meant Bandcamp gets to keep all the revenue on Bandcamp Fridays lmao

This seems like a stupendously bad idea on its face. Haven’t they heard of Murphy’s Law?
