Despite already being a customer, I find this disheartening.
In my mind, this is the real headline: Spotify paid millions to harm our right to choose where we consume content.
Music services have so far avoided the library fragmentation and exclusivity wars that soured streaming video. You can generally get all music on all services. Spotify was big enough to keep Apple Music from getting too hostile in this space, but they've lived long enough to become the villain.

Libraries were fragmented in music years ago but it eventually didn't work out for either the artist (Radiohead with Spotify) or the service (Tidal). We're just now seeing it with podcasts.
