Search data no

Because you never choose

History no

Because you never choose

Listening profile no

Because you never choose

What you like no

Because you never choose

None of this can be sold if they never chose what to listen to. It's data suicide

You pick songs, they squeeze ads and other songs in between (IIRC) and can gather data from how you interact with all of that.

You're understanding the value of big data.

It's why I reject all of these services. CDs, baby!
