Reads like an acquisition. I am not sure what to make of this as it could be a total coincidence that after a year and a half dmichel was really interested in spotify's backend migration, but either way I wouldn't be surprised if google is going to purchase or bid for it.
Maybe spotify moved unilaterally and is trying to position itself, could be a thouyght as well.
- CydeWeys 11y agoDo you have any source that Spotify has been acquired by Google? It sounds like baseless rumormongering to me. This wouldn't be a good way to announce such an acquisition anyway.
- vonklaus 11y agoSorry it was a flippant guess, which frankly I still stand behind as likely to be correct, but if unclear it was a guess.
- dmichel 11y agoJust an employee of spotify excited about the transition (I usually just lurk)
- vonklaus 11y agohahaha awesome! Glad you spoke up, exciting news. Just started using spotify a few weeks ago, but it is an awesome product. Cheers.
