I doubt anyone in entertainment thinks that avoiding the fate of the music industry would be a shame. Spotify is great for us users but there's no money in music anymore (not that that is specifically Spotify's fault).
- edraferi 11y agoI wonder how much of that is simply due to an explosion of supply driving prices down. It's so much cheaper to record and distribute music that there's no scarcity at all.
- slang800 11y agoI'm inclined to agree with this - I've got a backlog of albums to listen to, either recommended by friends, new releases by artists I already know I like, or from monthly playlists like BIRP. According to Banshee, it would take me about a month of 24/7 listening to hear all of it once. By the time I polish off that backlog, I'm sure that I will have found another couple hundred albums to replace it. So, right now my biggest problem is search and categorization by mood, rather than supply or even discovery.
