Looking for a place to find the Windows version of this without paying $20 for a single version or $5/month for regular updates.

Download the source code and build it?
And a music player probably doesn’t need to be bleeding edge either. So it’s pretty much a one off thing.
“Access to macOS and Windows releases are currently restricted to sponsors, a 5 USD monthly sponsorship is required.”
Really scummy on their part.
You should be able to build from source yourself to get a Windows version, although the process looks like a pain in the ass.
Curse whoever floated the idea to lock releases behind paywalls. We should not encourage this behavior.
Do not give them your money.
give me your work for free
Geez. Just build it yourself, you lazy leech.
Is it that hard to compile from source on Windows? I’ve been on Linux for 20 years, so I genuinely don’t know.
we also have to pay for a Apple developer account for signed macOS releases
Sounds like you should blame Apple, not the dev.
Great point.
Now, are they using this as an excuse to not provide a Windows version?
Not specifically. It sounds like they’re not really interested in maintaining a Windows version, so for that they charge. Generally I think people should be compensated for their labor, even though that might be an unpopular opinion in this community.
So, why even mention apple if you’re going to justify the developer’s actions anyways?
I’m going to go back to blaming the devs now. Nice try defending the people taking money from you. They’re banking on your low standards.

Yeah this is unfortunately common, and many people are quick to defend developers like that making excuses.
