I fear it is not possible to prevent people from setting up computers/virtual machines that play certain songs 24/7; and I'm surprised that there aren't services yet that offer to do that on scale.
This might mean that Spotify's current business model can not work longterm?
- noxToken 11y ago> and I'm surprised that there aren't services yet that offer to do that on scale How hard have you looked? I don't say that to be snarky, but that sounds like a service with a bit of overhead for startup with little maintenance to run. I don't think it would be openly advertised, however, for fear of legal action from music services.
