Letting Spotify, rather than Apple themselves, cannibalize music download sales was stupid.
Also, it's the end of one of Apple's moats: your previous purchases. Spotify works on any device. I will say that Spotify is pretty shit on Android, but that's just laziness on their part. (Issues I've had, all on stock Nexus or HTC android phones: crashing. Muting google maps. Not pausing when disconnecting headphones. My laptop and phone fighting over who controls the playlist. Playlist corruption. Their Android team is, at best, C players. And lazy ones. Every time I get suckered into letting Spotify update there's a new bug.)
