I don't understand why they haven't improved the platform. Anyone working on a better alternative?
If you're into electronic music you can also check Bleep (by Warp records). No DRM, you download your files and play them however you want.

Bandcamp could also put more effort into recommendations based on a user's purchases, or just when viewing an artist's page. Not "we recommend this new album that is trending" but "this artist is similar to this other one" in the style that the old what.cd site had, with its massive graphed connections from one artist to another based on style (within a genre) of music.
For example you get to an album page and there's just so much crap. The album and the player should be the main focus but the player is this tiny thing relegated into a corner.
Making it better for musicians would likely reduce their revenues.
