Spotify has been doing one feature wrong for as long as I can recall: The Previous Track button will always navigate to the previous track in the list, no matter what you played before, and if there is nothing in the playlist before that track then the button effectively does nothing. Come on! PREV stands for Previous not List Index - 1. Other than that, Spotify works well enough that I do appreciate the service, even if it smells of monopoly.
- thesumofall 9y ago35% [1] is a good market share but certainly no monopoly. Also, some of the competitors are extremely powerful players that are able to put up a fight [1] https://musicindustryblog.wordpress.com/2017/11/03/announcing-midias-streaming-services-market-shares-report/ https://musicindustryblog.wordpress.com/2017/11/03/announcin...
- sova 9y agoTrue, a monopoly would be far more exaggerated, but Spotify still holds the individual largest slice of the share pie according to this report. Their revenue almost 3 times that of any other music streaming service. 'Thanks for the helpful link! I'm surprised only 140 million people subscribe to streaming music.
- Shywim 9y agoIsn't that the standard behavior on every music player?
- pkd 9y agoOn all the music players I've used, that's not the case. Easy way to verify is to not shuffle and then try pressing previous.
- e12e 9y agoDon't know, but not having a useful history of tracks is really annoying. Why I've landed on cloudplayer for Android - it allows you to go back to "that nice track three songs back when I was biking down a hill" (when shuffling a large, partially unknown selection).

- sova 9y agoThere's a history tab?! Thank you kind friend
