EDIT: The only reason why I still had it at this point was because I could use it with other apps. However, now that my Spotify Subscription is cancelled, it doesn't work with anything. It's mildly infuriating because today, I can't still use it with other apps like I was able to yesterday.
Please don't make the same mistake I made. No one should buy this.
I wouldn't have expected them to do it any other way. The only reason why Spotify is still around is because every bit of competition is even more incompetent and greedy than they are
As a consumer, Spotify competes for my money with Bandcamp, who gave their cut to artists throughout covid.
Owning things is always a better model than renting them (edit: exceptions exist, none of which I need to be @ed about)
Spotify is the only subscription service in my life where I'd happily pay twice of what I am paying currently. I can miss all the other nonsense but not Spotify. It's probably my most used piece of software. Just to throw another opinion in the mix here.
People suggest downloading and maintaining an MP3 library as an alternative, but my god, no thank you. I remember those days, it was awful. On average I'm adding like 10 new songs to my library per week, I'd dread having to scour piracy sites for those. Then you have to keep it all synchronized between your phone, laptop and pc. Some obscure stuff will inevitably be unfindable, which means you have to resort to youtube mp3 downloading. Half the time you'll be forced to manually add tags and album art to your files.
Alternatively you could pay for each album individually. I'd estimate my entire library would set me back €2000 at least. And then you're still missing out on the social features, music discovery and cross-device functionality, all of which I use frequently.
For me Spotify is an incredible product that is well worth the money it costs. I am a very happy customer.
totally agree. and plus i kind of want to be charged money here. i want the musicians i listen to to get paid and be able to continue making music. i don't know if the amount they get paid vs spotify's cut is fair, but honestly if I wasn't paying my monthly subscription id probably be paying $0 and listening to less music.
Its crazy seeing people go apeshit just because spotify costs money. One of the least fucked up subscription services and yet they are mad because it isnt free. Come on guys :(
I'm enjoying Tidal as an alternative, haven't heard anything bad about them!
I tried Tidal back when "Amazon Music HD" launched and I was on a hunt for the best lossless streaming. My only issue with tidal is their catalogue. It is laughably deficient. In the end I found zero good lossless streaming options and went back to ripping my own CDs.
Compared to when I first tried them a few years ago their catalogue has gotten significantly better
About 6 months ago I took my 750ish songs from Spotify over and only the FFXIV game tracks didn't get imported in the move
Compared to like 60 or so percent when I last tried I'd say it's come a long way
Same exact issue here. Lossless content is great, but their library is miserably poor in comparison
even more incompetent ****or greedy
Napster pays artists more, costs less… but the service was garbage.
