I opened Spotify this morning to be greeted by a modal popup with a “sponsored recommendation”.
Why am I seeing ads if I’m already paying for the premium plan!? 😑

“What are you gonna do? NOT use us? lmao owned.” - Spotify
Apple Music has better audio quality and pays artists better.

I’d rather support the actual artists more. Apple pays the artists 3 times as much per stream as Spotify.

Deezer, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Tidal waving furiously Pick me! Pick me!
I haven’t tried all of those, but I like Deezer. It plays music and it’s much less pushy about podcasts or other crap that Spotify always clutters your start page with. The queue interface is also simpler to use. The only downside I see is that search is noticeably slower than Spotify on desktop.
Deezer nuts lmao
Just buying the mp3s and having them forever.
Aren’t you buing just the license to play it, though? Like, if they delete them from their catalogue you can’t listen to them anymore?
Not unless you’re “buying” it from some service that doesn’t let you download the file. Definitely don’t do that.
Yeah it’s odd for it to act cocky when it’s actually one of the few modern service products that has plenty of competition that people are willing to use.
Get 'vanced lmao
Android auto, doesn’t have an app
I just use InnerTune on Android.
Spotify pissed me off with some billing or API thing (don’t even remember the details) back in 2012, so I cancelled and never looked back. From what I’m reading now and then things is just getting worse and worse - and I have no clue why people (especially paying ones) are sticking with it.
My whole family uses it, and it’s fine (the paid plan). People just want to hate on Spotify in this thread. More power to them, but it’s nowhere near as horrible as they describe. I get all my music and podcasts from there.
